College retreat

At the start of every fall semester, Regent takes a weekend away—we leave town en masse to make space for us to connect, recalibrate, and gain shared vision as a community.  There was dormitory lodge accommodations but I stayed in a tent with a friend, using loaner sleeping bags (yes, plural) to insulate against the nighttime mountain chill. It was nice after a month of classes and homework to have two full days without a text book. 




With my housemate Marissa



With friends Heather and Jolene



With my friend Amy with whom I drove up to the retreat. I actually really enjoyed the drive—it was scenic and I enjoyed conversations with my fellow backseat passenger, Nicole:)
