Loved all the info. I spent six weeks on Givat Brenner in the summer of 1979. It was my second trip to Israel and I remeber when I stepped off the plane for the second time and felt, ahhh, I'm home. It is an amazing place. The kibbutz was a great experience. I worked for a week in the furniture factory, but complained about being inside. They then sent my to pick pears for five weeks. We had to catch the truck to the fields at 4:00 am. We were done by 10:00. It was great. I'll never forget checking those crazy yellow machines for gas and oil every morning. I didn't eat pears for years after I came home. Hope to be able to visit Israel again. Hi. Loved all the info. I spent six weeks on Givat Brenner in the summer of 1979.

I lived on Kibbutz Yahel in the south of Israel (45 minutes north of Eilat) for 10 years. Was just in the Galilee over Pesach hiking with the guys I was in the army with 20 years ago. It was great. Your ode to kibbutz life struck me lose to my heart. It's the same revelations and feelings I had when I first came to a kibbutz (Maale HaChamishe near Jerusalem) in 1979. On Yahel I was one of two people to vote against getting televisions for the members. I lost that one. Would love to talk to you some more about the visit. E-mail me, I'm in CLP's Reference Dept.
