Diablo Lake

At the North Cascades Institute, the mountains rise up like sentinals, rocky and patched with snow. The buzz of mountains, have you felt it?, is grounding and wonderful. I live by the water, a floaty place to live. In the mountains I breath differently, not so hectic, not so swishing about. This weekend is call Diablo Downtime. You can hike or do yoga, read, sleep, canoe. And the food, it's fabulous. And the night sky, pitch black with stars, a gazillion of them. Fabulous.

Here's where you can go to see learn more about this fabulous place, www.northcascadsinstitue.com. There are many art classes and nature writing classes. Your children can come for events. It's in the foothills of the cascades--lovely. And you should see the buildings. Fabulous--good in snow.

I'm here with two friends. We had a snoring event last night, some restlessness and loss of sleep. All in all, it was not the best, but okay. And everyone is happy this morning. Ahhhhhh!
Later,
