SALMON FOR DINNER

 The food at the Saint Andrew's Retreat Center is one of the main reasons for going to the Joe Retreat.  Tonight we had Salmon.  What a treat!




Always a dessert after dinner.


CUT, SEW, REPEAT

The first day of the Joe Retreat, and his instruction for the day is to think of a theme.  Then cut some fabrics, sew them together and repeat.

So we were off and running.

 

I picked some fabrics and started sewing.

Joe provided the music.


My project at the end of the day.


GREAT BREAKFASTS

 Staying at Saint Andrew's starts every morning with a great breakfast.  They usually serve up eggs and bacon, and oatmeal with the fixings, and Greek Yogurt with berries.  There is toast and juices, and sometimes muffins.  It's always good.

GOING TO UNION

 I'm all packed and set out for my week at the Joe Retreat in Union Washington on Hood Canal.  We'll be staying at the Saint Andrew's House Retreat Center.

It's just 2 miles from home to the Fauntleroy Ferry Dock where I boarded the ferry to Southworth on the Olympic Peninsula.  It was a nice day for a ferry ride.


It was a plus that when I arrived at Saint Andrews it wasn't raining.  I unloaded my stuff and started setting everything up.
