f4f3So, back from my retreat, as ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rparvaaz (accurately) called it. Much to my surprise it wasn't in Aberfeldy (70 miles away), but in Boat of Garten (150 miles away) instead. I think the venue changed worked to our advantage, since I had to drive up through the Cairngorms, and there's nothing like snow-covered mountains to drag your thoughts to, ahem, higher things.
I'll probably post more about it once I've finished processing, but one thing I'll share now. A couple of people there handn't seen my beard yet, and asked why I'd grown it. I told them that I'd never had one before, and had decided to give it a month. Then and there I decided that I'd do something for each month of this year that I'd never tried before. I have nine on a list: reading Proust all the way through is on there, as is seeing a country I've never visited before. Any other suggestions?
