IMAGINE - Esalen and Joan Baez

Esalen Institute just celebrated its 50th Anniversary with a Concert by Joan Baez.

 In Big Sur, California, Esalen, with its hot baths, is a magical spot. A spiritual retreat since the time of the region's Native Americans.  Joan Baez is just one of the famous, and non-famous longtime visitors.  She has been performing in Big Sur since the sixties.

 The swimming pool and massage tables balanced on the edge of the Pacific Ocean.

Ms. Baez performed many of her iconic songs from the sixties, and a new song by Dylan. A family affair, she was accompanied by her son Gabe, joined by her niece Pearl, and sitting in the audience was her 99 year old mother.

Her touching finale was the John Lennon song "Imagine". 

Peace and Love,

Marjorie
