I have been blessed to attend several retreats a year, over the last three years, at SimpLee Memories, hosted by Karen and her husband Sam. Hospitality truly is her gift! Three delicious meals a day, plus an area for snacks brought from home and a coffee bar. I come to work on my scrapbooks. Who wouldn't want to relax with nature right outside your window?! Wild turkeys, deer, elk, little frogs.... As you wonder the property, there are several hammocks, a grape orchard and many adorable structures that you have to see to appreciate. Each time we come there are new things to see. Karen is totally unobtrusive, yet available for help and advice, as well as sharing her gifts, talents and support. Her Korner Store is great in case you runout of supplies or accidentally left something at home, not to mention completed projects to provide inspiration. While her available bookings fill up as far as a year in advance, if you ever have an opportunity to attend, do not pass it up! read more
