Wonderful retreat

This retreat was wonderful! I made so many new friends and got even closer to some old ones. I am completely exhausted right now and will journal more later. I'm on my way out the door right now to get some cable thing to hook my new camera up to the computer so that I can share wonderful mom pictures and even some bear pictures.
 
Yesterday while shopping with Teri, Momma B & AnnM we came across some very Vincent Van Gogh looking sunflowers and I told my story of how I love him so much I think I must have been his lover in a a past life (just a joke but I do love him) (And anyway, that would mean I would have died of syphilis) Today I get home and go through my gift bag and I found sunflower seeds. Thank you very much to the loving person who put them in my bag. I am going to plant them tomorrow.
 
I traveled today with an 8 year old girl who was having her 1st airplane ride All by herself. She was so fun and refreshing and polite but she talked nonstop and wore me out. More tomorrow.

It feels as if it was everything and MORE! Bless you for being the heart with ears for that new little traveler and I suspect you became one of her \"best\" friends. Will be excited to see some pix soon. Hugs to you, Joanie

Colleen, Colleen. You are so quiet in person, yet so much more vocal on line. Maybe I just haven\'t ever spent enough time with you. It was good to see you again and you look fabulous. I saw a camera place as we were leaving town right on main street. I wish we could have found it sooner but sounds like your battery held out. I look forward to the pictures. We had a young man in back of us on the way home about eleven or twelve years old and he talked non stop too, but he also kept \"farting\" and would laugh and laugh. Awww, the humor of little boys. Glad you\'re home safe. Love you. Robin
