Tranquility

a silent, easeful weekend

Too much going on lately? Is the noise, chatter, and chaos of modern civilization overwhelming you at times? Seeking a quiet, calming refuge from all the distractions and demands of your life? Or do you want to simply deepen into more peace and ease? Then this weekend is for you!

Hiking trails, a pond, and treehouse platforms. Any number of special spots to nap in a hammock, sit and meditate, write/draw/journal, or simply drop into the magic of the present moment.
