And here is the small lobby of the retreat house, where we could sit and talk and have snacks and coffee. Out the picture window you can see a monument with sacred words inscribed on it, and a red-leafed Japanese maple tree with new spring foliage. One for the nicest things about retreat houses is that they offer a relatively safe place to walk and observe nature and wildlife. The birdwatching here was excellent, a welcome relief from staring at the screen all day.
