One Word: FUN!
Wednesday, May 9th, 2012Our four-day Spring Runaway Quilter’s Retreat is rapidly becoming a distant memory and things are beginning to return to normal (whatever that is!) I have finally recuperated enough to get the photos all in one place and ready to share. We had so much fun and everyone was super-productive! I don’t think I’ve ever been on a retreat when so much work was accomplished…this group was focused!
Our retreats are held at the Charlie Elliott Conference Center, which is out in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nature and wildlife.
Buford and Beulah Buzzard are the resident “pets” who keep a close eye on the comings and goings of quilters at the Center. This was the only photo I was able to get of them…they’re sneaky little buzzards! But Donna managed to get some great shots (I shamelessly stole these photos from her!)
Notice not only the pair of buzzards but the beautifully landscaped grounds!
The view from our workroom…that’s a beautiful lake glistening through the trees.
I managed to get a couple of good shots of the Super Moon on the 5th…
This shot was taken through the window and is of the moon reflecting off the water in the lake.
Super Moon about midnight shining down on the Conference Center where we were.
We couldn’t ask for a better facility…plenty of room for everyone to spread out and work!
My right-hand assistant, Gwen!
Peggy seems to think if she ignores me, I’ll go away with the camera…NOT!
I have lots more pix to share, but in another post since this one is rather picture-heavy already. Prepare to be wowed…
