fyi ...
Zen master Thich Nhat Hahn will be leading a Peace Walk at MacArthur Park in Los Angeles Sat., Sept. 29 at 9:30 a.m.
That same day, he will be giving a public lecture at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium at 7 p.m.

Thich Nhat Hahn (affectionately known as "Thay" which means "teacher" in Vietnamese) is a Peace Leader, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, New York Times bestseller, author and poet. The celebrated Vietnamese Buddhist monk has lived in exile in France for forty years.
I was going to go to his retreat, but I blew the $400 tuition on concert tickets. Then I was going to go to his talk, but I blew $40 (talk + Ticketmaster charge) on a birthday gift. ::) So, I'm down to the Peace Walk. Thankfully, that's free.
I'm bummed that I didn't go to the retreat. Heard poet/author Sandra Cisneros was there too. But I am going to the Peace Walk and the talk. I went two years ago and it was amazing.
Humboldt_Honey,
Tried to send you message via your VegWeb message Inbox to see if we might be able to connect at the Peace Walk tomorrow in Los Angeles.
Hope all is well and that you have a wonderful time if I miss you at the event.
