Little Renaissance.  Tis the season to start working on the house and in the garden!

Little Renaissance.

This past weekend, four sisters (Lolo, Marcia, Sara, and Jane) booked a private yoga retreat with us at our sanctuary and home, Little Renaissance, in Ocean Shores.  Unfortunately, Jane could not make it after all, but Rick and I were able to delight in the company of 3 of the 4 sisters all weekend.

We were blessed with unusual fine March weather and went on our beach walk to see the snowy owls.  We saw three of the eight owls who have come to winter over in Ocean Shores.  And to make the weekend a complete success, there were the sisters.  Lolo, Marcia, and Sara graced our house with their sweet laughter and filled our home with their joyful and playful spirits.  Rick and I felt as if we were with our own sisters all weekend.
