Off to Women' Retreat!

I leave in 3 1/2 hours to drop the kids and head to the ferry, pick up a friend and drive south to attend the 7th Annual Fall Women's Retreat at St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church in Beaverton, OR. On the way Helen and I will stop in Olympia and get into Mimi's car (it gets way better gas mileage) and head the rest of the way. Hopefully I get to see lots of familiar faces from my old parish and ladies from my current parish are attending as well. But we will also be having a blogger reunion of sorts and I'll get to chat for a bit with these wonderful ladies: Christina, Carrie and Xenia.
Can't wait.

Have a fabulous weekend and see you next week!

Please give them my sincerest regrets, and tell them I really wanted to meet them tonight!

What fun! Next year, I won't be far away, so perhaps I can go as well.

I seem to remember meeting Mother Raphaela. I think she came to our church in Massachusetts a number of years ago. I believe she is friends with my son's godparents. I can't really remember...
