Seven of The Portland Nine have just returned from a retreat at Connie's beach house in Longbeach, WA. We missed Kathy, Wendy, and Heather, but want them to know we actually did do some writing along with the more important aspects of these visits to Connie's: eating, drinking, laughing, crying, and telling our stories! And yes, there was some beach time, but the weather was not conducive to much of that.
I hope the writers will post some of the great writing and poetry that was done over the weekend. Here are a few shots to give you the flavor of it all.

| Ephemeral moment: the clouds slipped to the edges and the rain stopped. |
 |
| "Is this how we do it?" |
 |
| "I've never been around women like you!" |
 |
| 100% involvement on all projects |
 |
| "I want to spend my life doing this!" |
Hear the buzz?
Without going slow
Conversations flow
Commitment challenges
Emerging
Making decisions critical
The essential ripple:
Change…
Goes all the way.........
(Found poem by Ruth)
