Wednesday was a relatively quiet day. I had the interim executive director interview, which went pretty well. We will see if I get called back for a second interview with the board. It was a sunny but cold day, I got out for a couple of walks on the grounds, including doing the labyrinth twice,…

I have been in heaven the last two days because it has been snowing! It started out with a few flakes coming down on Sunday morning as I headed out to walk the labyrinth. By the time I was done, there was a very light layer of snow on the rocks and on my scarf.…

Feeling full of sister and mom love. Also very relaxed after staying at a beautiful, peaceful place for 4 days. We ate, we walked, we talked. We also tried to figure out how many years we’ve been doing sisters weekend and estimated it’s been at least 15, maybe closer to 20 years. We’ve traversed a lot…

It was a beautiful sunny day and even though we arrived at Muir Beach before…
