Working Retreat '08 Highlights

In fact, "highlights" is probably not the best choice of words, considering there was no light almost the entire time we were gone. We were fortunate our last morning (Wednesday) to have almost six hours of power!

Anyway, here are my interesting tidbits from Adena's and my working retreat for Joint Project at Miango from Monday morning to Wednesday afternoon:

• We waited a half hour after our arrival for our rooms to be ready.
• Adena got trapped in her room Monday night. I had to go find the man in charge of maintenance to get her rescued. Yikes!
• I hurt my toe really badly while rushing to the maintenance man's house to rescue Adena.
• Timothy had a snazzy time on the porch watching workmen roof a building across the fence.
• We almost stepped on a very dead mouse in the middle of the path Tuesday night.
• There was no power at all from 10:30AM Monday morning when we arrived until 6:00AM Wednesday morning, seven hours before we left.
• We had to lug one laptops back and forth from our rooms to the main office to charge while we used the other until its battery died.
• Timothy and I spent Tuesday evening watching Casablanca for the first time!
• Timothy got to enjoy his first time in a swing.
• We came home!!
