Re: Thoughts on a retreat?

Hi Ladies - Just wanted to bump this thread up in case you did not see my new thread on finding a retreat location. One of our sisters on this board is graciously providing us her lake house for our retreat!

The general information is as follows. August 19,20,21,22. The 19th and 22nd can be travel days.
A well appointed 5 bedroom lake home in Illinois located 3 miles from the Wisconsin border.
Food and beverage will be provided but kitchen help is welcome!
Closest airports, Ohare, Madison or Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Rockford, Illinois.
Things to do…walks around the lake, swimming, boating, Frisbee golf, foosball, table pool, sitting by the fire pit...and just hanging out with each other!

PM me if you are seriously interested and we will reserve your spot.
