Greetings! My name is Gwen and I live in the United States in West Central Florida...aka the home of the perpetual hurricanes after the five we had in succession in 2005..ugh...Anyways I live in a small community within a very large County. There are no druid groups in my immediate area but I am also a Wiccan Witch (yes one of those, lol), having taken class with several others in Wicca under the tudorship of a Wiccan High Priestess, who has since left our area. We gather in the "kirk" of my home to celebrate ritual sabbats and other observances. (The kirk is the name the Laird and I gave to the room, after we installed stained glass windows and refurnish the room so that those in our home would have a place of solitude and worship...and yes there are christians who use the room as well)... I am a retired sheriff's sgt (oops this is where I usually lose folks), having taken an early retirement 11 years ago to stay home with my late in life babe...who is now 14 and touring with a pop-rock band. My Laird is the Fire/Rescue Chief where we live. I have an older daughter (30ish) who's married and I have two grandsons...I take care of my elderly mother, who has had several strokes...she is one of the reason we made the kirk so she could have a place to worship...but we all use it..more than her, I have to admit.....Anyways...I'm a young 55, and the Laird can attest to that as he has quite a time keeping up with me. I do so enjoy life and meeting new folks and learning...any and all that I can..

Slainte, Sonas agus Beairteas!
Gwen

Yep, it's me again...sorry but I'm not very good at your forum but I'll improve as time goes by. I failed to mention that I have followed the druid path for many years but I have no one to attest to that but myself...I am a genealogical researcher with several family books completed. I am the keeper of the family history and it's lore... so there you have it...just me.. nice to meet you all..Gwen

Greetings,
My name is Martha and I live in Dallas, Texas. I am 56 years old and I am just starting the Bardic grade and I am excited about this new path. I am looking forward to getting to know this community through the various message boards. Please don't invite me to find a place by the fire because here in Dallas it is 102 degrees F in the shade and that is HOT! Give me a place by the fan and a drink with lots and lots of ice, and I'll be your friend forever!

Blessings,
Martha

Hi, My name is Angie and I have just started the OBOD course at the Bardic grade. I am 53, married with 2 grown daughters. I am disabled so cannot get around too much these days but we live in Cornwall near to The Hurlers so we can visit these sacred circles whenever we want which is a real blessing. I am looking forward to joining in discussions and learning from all you out there!

Hello all .. My Name is Curtis, I decided to join after my Mum gave me the introductory Gwers,
My Mum is Dhubh (alijay) . After listening to her going on about it,
I decided it sounded the right thing to do, So here i am!
Iam 18, a student just moved back home to Blackpool Lancashire after being away for 2 years at college.
Look forward to meeting and chatting to you all !

Warm greetings all, I look forward to learning, sharing and chatting with you all.
Whilst not new to Druidry per se, I am new to this site, and cannot wait to get started on the Bardic Course to at last place together all my experiences and learnings to date, along with much that I still have to learn on lifes journey and more.
I have thoroughly enjoyed Gwers 1 and 2, and seem to keep finding myself thinking, 'hang on that makes sense' or 'hang on I do that'. Scary, exciting, a feeling that this is where I belong and I don't like cliches, but a feeling of at last coming home to where I should be or have been before. Anyone else had that feeling?
