Grab a camera and play along.
And even if you don’t join the fun,

Remember that women’s retreat I went to awhile back? I took some photos that I haven’t yet shared with you. I thought these might make up for my absence on the net these last few days. Prepare to ooooh and aaaah. I took these shots and they even dazzle me! The retreat center campus was gorgeous!

Beautiful! I would love to sit in that chair.
Betty — I did enjoy sitting on the bench!
Wow, those are gorgeous. What a lovely, peaceful place.
Barbara — it was incredibly beautiful. We had sunrise service in the gazebo you see in the second photo. Those benches are installed in a large circle and there is an alter in the middle. The service was hymns and a short prayer. Several other women and I played handbells and it was lovely.
Wow. What a beautiful place for a retreat. Well, for anything.
Nessa — it is a non-profit Christian retreat center. The food and the staff were fantastic.
Wow. Those are incredible.
Linda — easy to take gorgeous shots of a gorgeous place.
These are stunning. The second one is my fav. Love that bench.
Thom, the scenery was stunning, so the photos have to be. That bench was pretty popular and I am surprised I found it empty — it must have been because the lunch bells had just chimed.
Those are some real Gems!
The last one’s my Favorite.
Nicole — they dazzled me and I took them.

Amanda — I deliberately took the photos for the reflections. I just never expected them to come out so stunning.
My mom died when I was 3 and I have no memories of her cherish. You really are blessed to have had your mother as both mother and friend. I know you miss her greatly.
