   I've no idea what the local flavor is. There are several Buddhist   
   organizations including EWAM a little north of here.

   They usually have an event of two during the summer that I go up for   
   although Tibetan Buddhism is a bit ornate or something for me. The Open   
   Way Sangha is the Thích Nhất Hạnh tradition. Big Sky Mind is another   
   Tibetan type. I think the Buddhist scene is covered. I doubt it's CUUPS   
   either but who knows. That might be fun.

   At least one of the Catholic churches live streams the Mass. They haven't   
   figured out telecommunion yet as far as I know.
