As luck would have it, my airfare coincided with Mayday, or Beltane as it's called in some circles.
The Wheel of the Year has two opposites: Beltane, the beginning of summer, and Samhain, or All Hallow's Eve, the beginning of winter.
Beltane/Mayday is a day filled with eager greetings to warm weather, flowering trees, and young love.
The Berkeley Morris dance up the sun every May 1 at Inspiration Point in Tilden Park. This year, I got to attend - and it's been a long time since I've enjoyed the Berkeley Morris.
