2011 Kate Wolf Memorial Music Festival Part 1:  Some mobile images of folks at the folk festival.  

Ever since I first heard about the Kate Wolf Memorial Music Festival around the time they first started I always wanted to go and celebrate the music and life of one of my favorite artists.  Although it was much more a spectacle than I expected (and certainly more diverse than just a folk festival), I feel blessed to have gone.  It’s still a family event put together with a lot of heart and passion.  It is probably the kindest and friendliest festival I have ever been.  What’s a Filipino-American family from LA doing in the middle of a rural campground deep in the heart of Northern California wine country with a bunch of folkies and neo-hippies anyways?  Well, we felt welcomed and at home.  We missed fellow Angelinos Los Lobos perform because we were on a 2 year old’s schedule, but we heard some great music and met some gentle souls.  I already miss the smiles, the tie-dyes, the kale salads, the vegan ice cream, the shade of a friendly tree and the spirit of the great Kate Wolf.

Hope to come again someday.
