One doesn't normally associate drag with forestry, but Breitenbush Conference Center had recently purchased some land across the river from the lodge.  Its previous owners had not taken care of the parcel.  There was lots of gravel and old pipes strewn around.  Now that the land was safely under Breitenbush management, its "time to heal" had begun. 

Conference participants decided to help Breitenbush Center heal the land.  A ceremony took place with people hiking to a "vortex" in the land parcel.  It reminded me of things I have read about in Native American life.  A bit different than your normal "real-estate" transaction.  Do most realtors talk about the "vortex" of the land?
