Time grows short. I have a few hours of work, and then it's back to the house for the treat of a 24 hour visit from in-laws who are visiting various family members in Florida. We're the furthest away, so I'm honored that they're making the effort.

But a short retreat is better than no retreat.
Speaking of retreats, I have this blog post up over at the Living Lutheran site about why we should take retreats and what to consider when choosing a retreat.
