Members

The Tribe has grown over the years into a wonderfully eclectic collection of insane people. We expand each year as more people of questionable sanity are drawn in like moths to the flame. Below are the members of the Tribe – (Our Fearless leader is at the Top – followed by members in alphabetical order)

Jim Bowers
TriBe Leader & Founder
Colfax, CA

Since 1997 we have been on the move. Getting up each morning. Going out to forage another days existence in this 21st century jungle. But no matter where we are, no matter how plentiful the fruit, we are always looking over our shoulders. Something is missing…so we move on. And as we travel, we gather more and more wanderers. Other like minded bedouins that realize we are all looking for the same place. So, we huddle together and talk often of a place where we are all content and joyous in life and spirit. During our journey, we come upon a vast and barren plain. So far reaching that it falls off the edge of the earth.
And one by one from the thick canopy on the edge of this dry, seemingly infinite place, the travelers appear. And their numbers grow as more and more enter the sun bathed clearing. They will hug and embrace one another as they walk onto the dusty plateau. They know where they are going, because they’ve been here before. That mighty oak in the far distance is where they will all come together as ONE Tribe. And they gathered under its mighty limbs, so peaceful yet mysterious and energetic. How did this mighty oak come to grow and flourish in this wasteland, devoid of life? They held hands and danced around this massive symbol of life and pure joy. Not for worship or ritual, but merely to celebrate their being together in this wonderful place. They know that they cannot not stay here for long. They must return to the modern jungle and forage for food.
But for this short moment in time, they celebrate just being together again, as ONE. When the snows come they will return to their different tribes with their different colors and strange voices in far away and distant lands. But none of that matters here. Because they know in their own hearts there is only one TRUE Tribe. It is the Tribe of all.
But for now, we are here, we’re together and we are finally home. – JBowers
