The “Girls”—Nashville Retreat (August 2019)

I just completed a retreat in Nashville, Indiana. This particular group of women meet twice a year at the Cornerstone Inn for five days and four nights of fun. We manage to talk a lot, eat a lot, laugh a lot, and make some progress on projects we want to get done.

I can’t say enough about how supportive this group of women are to one another. I am a relative “newbie” compared to many of them; but even during the time I have been there, we have been through many “life events” together. Since Nate has been gone, I haven’t been “out” for too many things; it isn’t always easy. I am trying to say “yes” when someone asks me to do something or go somewhere. These ladies showed great love, compassion, and understanding. I’m thankful. 

Here are pics of the girls. (If you look closely, you can see some of their projects.)







I’m looking forward to our time together next January.

It's a nice sized group, and everyone looks like they are having a great time - good senses of humor in that bunch, too. I'm so glad you went. It will make it easier the next time.

It good to have some things you do/did... on your own. It will feel more like a normal event. It really looks like a big group of ladies.
