Winter is always a wonderful time for slowing down and taking time for reflection, walking in winter landscapes, and storytelling around fires.
Watching sunlit clouds in the golden hour drift across a blue sky, I marvel at how quickly the summer is flying by. So much has been happening that it is hard to know where to begin, but let’s start with an update on our wonderful Little Pond Wildlands.
Life’s Springtime – A One-Day Retreat October 14 for Young Adults ages 15-25
We are exploring the possibility of an “in perpetuity” conservation easement for Little Pond’s 32 acres. What an affirmation of the original wildlands vision for Little Pond this will be if it comes to fruition. We’ll keep you posted! Meanwhile it is time to book space for your 2023 Spring, Summer and Fall Arts Retreats and Events.
Looking back on the turning of the seasons – summer to fall to winter – Little Pond happenings etched in my memory include milkweed walks and a Memorial Service for Lakota legend Kevin Locke.
The fall rains and cooler nights are here, welcome after a summer with significant drought. As one friend said in a recent gathering, “Hello winter, we know you are coming to get us!” But every season at Little Pond has its joys and treasures and we have so much to be thankful for as we look back at the Summer of 2022.
It’s March 21, 2022, the first day of Spring and we are excited to launch this new website celebrating our current vision for Little Pond. As we gathered pictures, pondered what we wanted to communicate, and worked with our son Sam George and his eye for wonderful design touches, we could hardly believe how much has happened since the last time we worked on the website in 2012!
That's all, folks!
