Restful, regenerative retreat

Had a wonderful time this past weekend at the MFA knitting retreat. We stayed on the grounds of the San Francisco Theological Seminary in San Anselmo, which turned out to be a rather gorgeous setting--it felt a little bit like Europe. Except for that persistent eucalyptus smell.

Good times were had by all--good company, good food, good wine, good yarn--a wonderful success. A few shots of the sumptuous surroundings:


A chapel just down the street


Chapel on the top of the hill


View of a castle-like building from the top of the hill--quite possibly another chapel (rumor has it that the first Harry Potter wrap party took place here since it is so Hogwartsy)


Not your mother's east coast pine cones

It was a veritable chapelpalooza, but was a welcome respite and rest. Did I mention that attendees also received several sumptuous skeins of yarn? Good times, indeed.
