A Weekend Away--an annual Women's Retreat

Ah, to go away with a delightful group of women is beyond special for me. I look forward each year to this retreat, and so appreciate the time, to spend time away with these wonderful women, and being on the100_5643 beautiful OR coast is a bonus in my opinion.  100_5660We gather in Lincoln City at a beautiful home that is perfect for a large group such as ours. A few of us arrive early on Wednesday, most of the other ladies arrive on Thursday--leaving the last few to join us early Friday. The weekend is full of friendly chatter, soulful laughter, too much eating, quiet reading, competitive games, joyous times together, heartfelt tears, spiritual fellowship, walks on the beach, biblical lessons & intimate sharing by all.
Joyce took the plunge last year  by blowing a lovely glass ball. 100_6991This year she tried her hand at a blowing a matching glass bowl100_6995--wow it was beautiful. So loved sharing this thrill with her.
