We had a great 3-day retreat in the San Bernardino mountains with our church community. It was the end of Morgan's spring break so this year we were able to head up early on Friday and maximize the time in the mountains. It's easy cabin with al meals included and activities. Saturday AM while the kids played at the playground in child watch, Jeff accompanied me as I biked back up the mountain on hwy 38, a 15 mile ride w/ over 3000 ft elevation and few spots at 15%. There wasn't much of a shoulder so Jeff held the cars back by driving slowly. It was a nice confidence booster as it wasn't as tough a ride as I thought it would be only took 70 minutes.
The rest of the day was spent watching the girls enjoy their freedoms as they checked in as they went between the playground, lodge and cabins on the trails at the large campus. The girls had a blast and played non-stop.
Saturday night there was a dance party in the main lodge followed by a viewing of the 'Princess Bride' at the library. We stayed up until 11 PM watching and walked back to our cabin under a full sky of stars.
Sunday was more playing for the girls and chatting for the adult, a church service and the ride home. What a wonderful, relaxing weekend. Love JeLiMoBe
