Every summer for 4 weeks, 10 -15 young people join me to go on a canoeing adventure. Each day we canoe a different local river. Over the years we have encountered manatees. aligators, snakes and even dolphins. We go to places that are still very remote and offer a taste of what our region use to look like before we clear cut the forests and developed sensitive lands. We canoe The Slave Canal, a waterway that was build by the blood and sweat of slaves to connect the Wacissa River to the Gulf of Mexico through the Aucilla River. What I ask the young people and the staff is to look at each adventure with new eyes. That is, like they have never seen it before. Many young people come year after year and have experienced many of the rivers before. I ask them to remember what the landscape seemed like the first time they saw it. It is still that incredible and more so. I will post pictures if my camara doesn't get soaked! This site could sure use some new photos! I also need to get permission of anyone in the pictures unless they are an aligator or a bear. Last year I saw a mother bear and her three cubs crossing a dirt road in Bradwell Bay as I was completeing a shuttle. i had no camara. That way, I could fully experience the bear without funbling for my camara. No pictures but a place in my heart for the bears.     My friend Abby took this wonderful photo of a swallow tail kite. See more fantastic photos on her website http://pineyflatwoodsgirl.blogspot.com/ and read more about the swallow tail kite (Click this link.) WELCOME to.... We Are All One Music! ENVIRONMENTAL SONGS, EARTH SONGS AND NATURE SONGS BY IRWIN FRIEDMAN FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS OF ALL AGES! LISTEN AND SING ALONG WITH SONGS OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND NATURE THAT EXPRESS THE WONDER AND MYSTERY OF OUR NATURAL WORLD AS WELL AS EXPLORE THE INCREDIBLE WORLD INSIDE EACH OF US. At We Are All One Music you will find uplifting songs about the joy of life and how we are really all one. We are all one means that we are human beings living together on this planet, not separate from the rest of life nor each other. The first CD called "Singing the Earth" is available now. This coming year I am planning to produce two more CD's. You will hear songs about social issues, nature and the environment and you will listen to songs that invite you to go inside yourself and question everything that we do as individuals and as a human society. After all, if we are going to change the direction the world is heading, surely it must start from the source which is each of us. The world being a reflection of each one of us means that we are responsible for everything that is going on everywhere. These songs transcend my efforts to label them. I sing these songs to young children as well as to adults and it seems that every age appreciates them and enjoys listening. For now, these songs are in these categories, environmental songs, nature songs, earth songs and children's songs. My name is Irwin Friedman and I have been composing and singing to young people for over 25 years. I hope you find these songs uplifting and fun to sing.

Upcoming Article MASANOBU FUKUOKA and the ONE STRAW REVOLUTION In 1978 Kukuoka wrote The One Straw Revolution. It is not only a book about farming with nature but also about personal transformation. I will be posting an article about Fukuoka's work in the coming weeks. "The ultimate goal of farming is not the growing of crops, but the cultivation and perfection of human beings."

Irwin singing happily in front of a live oak. Listen carefully, can you hear the cicadas singing along?   Observing the Suwannee River between branches. I have composed several of my songs sitting on the banks of this river.
