Brainstorming-wise, how best to create a #virtualHarbin experience in a new place you move to, compared with where you live? If there's a bath tub for de facto #RelaxationResponse #Meditation of #VirtualSoaking in a #DigitalMask what else :)?

Quakers among Unitarians
Nice to talk last night again! And thanks for your support
In the following lines of inquiry, I found UU Rev Paul Sawyer (who was in Pittsburgh, PA, too), and which video you'll find at the end of this email too -
A conversation with Paul Sawyer May 20, 2010
https://youtu.be/jmsWXa5D-As
(Sawyer lived from 1934-2010)
Interesting UU southern California 'Onion church' he was involved with shaping - Sepulveda UU Church
.... And for goodness sake :) I searched on 'Quakers among Unitarians' and found ...
UUA Handout 5: Quaker Fact Sheet
https://www.uua.org/re/tapestry/youth/bridges/workshop17/189721.shtml
No Religion. Always Practicing Quakerism.
https://www.friendsjournal.org/depts-m07-240-julie-wise-on-faith-and-practice/
(... and how would I characterize culturally these two religious organizations - and their interfaces, similarities, differences, and fruitful potentials for communication - post 1960s, not only religiously, but identity-wise anthropologically too? ... as well as Harbin Hot Springs, and Yoga, inspired by Angela & Victor ... maybe later )
... and I may head up to the UU church this morning around 10 (with Friendly Quaker interests ... ) but religious folks can be a bit crazy (and in Berkeley in particular) ... appreciating reasoning too of philosophy (but hippy-wise as well, eg David Chalmers?) ... and of all stripes, but they can also seek to be good, and this Unitarian community dates back to 1891, I've read ... and there may be wisdom 'in the woodwork' and community ... and good thinking ...
How about a Google Smart TV for views, Ma? You mentioned wishing you had a view last night. Am seeing many fascinating views in my Google Smart TV ... as my view of the Google Gate Bridge and SF Bay is totally socked in.
Thanks too for your health-focus on walking near my new Arlington Blvd place ...
In this morning's inquiry, I then searched on - and this is how I learned of Paul Sawyer -
Grateful Dead and Unitarians (and found these pointers to a GD show at Northridge UU church in 1966)

...

. “The Onion” was completed in 1964 and is built of glued laminated timber beams that curve from the foundation to the flat point at the top of the roof. The entire building is covered with composition (originally wood) shingles.[4]
In February 1966 “The Onion’’ became the site of one of the famous Acid Tests put on by the Merry Pranksters. The then-minister of the church, Paul Sawyer, had met Pranksters' leader Ken Kesey at the annual California Unitarian Church conference at Asilomar State Beach. According to Sawyer’s memoir, Prankster Ken Babbs called to ask if they could put on an Acid Test, and Sawyer said they could as long as they didn’t give out acid (LSD) to the audience.[5

A conversation with Paul Sawyer May 20, 2010https://youtu.be/jmsWXa5D-As
Remembering Paul Sawyer (and thinking too about Quakers) in this 'A conversation with Paul Sawyer May 20, 2010' may be one reason I head to the UU Church of Kensington this morning.
Do you know of Rev. Paul Sawyer, Ma? The conversation is interesting (UU history, radicalism, poetry, the 1960s, nonviolent social change), with lots of New England and Massachusetts thinking in it :)
Glad I moved out of Canyon 94516 safely ... and thanks to you, Ma ... (and perhaps networking among UUs could help further even change that place's culture somehow) .... stay tuned ...
Am listening now to this Conversation ... up to 23 minutes' mark ... check it out, Ma :)
Love, Scott

Ma,Ikea was packed with people (but no chair with attached desk did I find) but the Unitarian Church is empty ... Masks required and worn but hand sanitizer not - with Coronavirus pandemic ... Go figure
Oregonian Live newspaper Houston Chronicle rarely show tRump articles first or very many of them, whereas most other US papers I check do ... intl papers are different here
Seeking to bagpipe now earlier than 10:30 pm due to thin ceiling and noise traveling upstairs ... 9-8 ?
Time to send out finally the Minutes (in the manner of Quakers) from last month's Business Meeting
How has your day been? And your weekend? New place here is pretty nice [image error]
