Quilt Retreat

On Friday I left for Quilt Retreat at Casowasco on Owasco Lake. We had a wonderful time eating, talking, eating, helping each other, eating, and occasionally we did a bit of sewing.D

Donna and Ann are shown in the top picture. Ann volunteered to act as coordinator of this semi annual event. The quilt on left is Donna's and on right the stars are Mary R's.

Second picture, Donna H. (the other Donna H.) and Sue McD are walking to breakfast at Emmaus. This building was rennovated, added onto and refurbished to seat many more people who gather for retreats, meetings and summer camp.

We stayed in the Case's summer cottage Galilee.

The Case family developed technology that put sound in motion pictures.

The group in the third picture are some of our retreat members. We sew in the Foster Center underneath the Lakeside Chapel.

Our meals are so good thanks to the chef who came there last year. We had a couscous salad with pommegrante seeds, dill and grape leaves for lunch yesterday. Barbequed brisquet on a roll was part of lunch. Last night we had a turkey dinner with a wonderful seasoning on the turkey, dressing, smashed potatoes, dressing, gravy and vegetables, complete with a salad bar and cake.

Now to finish unpacking.
