Paines Prairie Part 2 & Others at O'Leno
Of course most of my posts are Jamie laden, and have the folks we stayed with at Paines Prairie. These were all on Sunday and apparently I woke up and took some shots of others.
I am not going to list everyones names here as I don't know everyone's name. I mentioned more than once that name tags would be nice for us newbies. But that's ok.
I tried to post some shots that gave an idea of what a Sunday at O'Leno was like. First some partook in Yoga and came back to the cabin relaxed. Then others went to the Sunday service riverside. Jamie did her first service for the church and handed out song sheets. Then she wandered off, she isn't used to services because of RE. (Mason took the girls on a nature walk at this time - Thanks Mason!
After service a FABULOUS brunch of Marinated asparagus and carrot medallions with bean bruche...Then a time in the playground with a session on the swings, a stop in the interuptive center to read about FDR's fabulous CCC and their work at transforming O'Leno from an abandoned mill town to a wonderful state park.
Then a quick peek into some of the cabins with more ameneties followed by the trip home qith a sleepy girl. Only memories remain.

O'Leno Thirty Five!
I am setting this blog up for those of us who choose to share photos and news about experiences we have together as UU's. Anyone who would like to participate please leave a comment asking to be added, and that way you can add photos and do posts on your own. Or just come and view and comment as you wish, it's your choice.
This will give us all a way to share photos and news with each other easily. (You will be able to pull photos and save on your computer or send to CVS to be printed very easily with this venue.) It also may help some of us newbies to learn everyone's name and who goes with which family. :-)
In that spirit if you could please label any photos you may post with folks names especially if the photo contains those whom are other than the very well known UUofJaxers like Carlos, RE Kelly, Sharon or the Huebners.
We just returned from the 35th annual O'Leno UU retreat and I have to say just one word for the experience my family had this weekend - AWESOME!!
