Why Retreat?

“Creative work needs solitude. It needs concentration without interruptions. It needs the whole sky to fly in; with no eye watching until it comes to that certainty which it aspires to, but does not necessarily have at once. Privacy, then. A place apart.”

~ Mary Oliver, Poet, Writer & Winner of the 
Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award

Phenomenal Weather

After rain poured down.
The sun came out for blue skies.
Unlike Seattle.
