The main activity at Grace's Retreat
was laughter - what a great time. Pembroke is a gorgeous area and the trees were at their peak . On one of the drives Jean and I couldn't help but talk about the range of colors from dark burgundy thru chartreuse and everything in between. We talked, ate and laughed from Thursday night until Sunday - Grace did a wonderful job of planning activities. She had lots of food and some homemade wine ready for our arrival on Thursday evening. All mornings we had breakfast together in the hotel before we headed out for the day's activity. On Friday several of us picked up picnic supplies and set up a table full of cheeses, crackers, fruit, cookies, etc. on the patio outside our hotel where we visited for most of the afternoon and handed out our goodie bag prizes before we took off for the blueberry farm and our evening meal. We really packed a lot into Saturday with a trip to a quilt shop, a quilt show, Grace's home and a lovely restaurant right on the waterfront with LIVE entertainment from Grace's singing group and an unbelievable trunk show. Can't wait for the next retreat - As many have said before, if you get a chance to meet some of the people from the Board, do it. Joleen in MN
