Ah, your Finnish blood, Diane!
When I lived in Issaquah I attended an annual women’s retreat on the Hood Canal at the Robbinswold Girl Scout camp. I miss it soooo much. This could be just the what I need – I’ll just have to see what the Universe serves up come January! – Majka
Beautiful, Majka! Are you the Majka I met in North Carolina, or another lovely Majka? Hope you can join us.
I will be 65 in 2012, and never have gone on a retreat or done anything like this for myself — it’s time!
Cynthia, high time indeed!
I hope you will join us.
Count me in! Count me in! I’m already saving my Coins.
Oh lovely, Clare. Looking forward to it!
