Very cool! I’m planning to take another retreat to my favorite place in Stockton, IL around that time. I’ll be bringing along my multimedia journal as well as my regular journal. No telling what I’ll create, but being on retreat is the ultimate in self care.
But this one you found is very WOW. Definitely a temptation.

Thanks for publishing about this. There’s a mass of solid tech info on the internet. You’ve got a lot of that info here on your website. I’m impressed – I try to keep a couple blogs pretty on-going, but it’s a struggle sometimes. You’ve done a great job with this one. How do you do it?
