Happy Mother's Day

I spent the weekend with my wonderful daughter's participating in

a Woman's Wellness Weekend at YMCA's Camp Hazen in Chester, CT.

We arrived Friday evening to a spread of appetizers and a welcoming activity.

There were fewer particpants this year than previous years. This was our 6th year.

There are a variety of activities throughout the week end ranging from yoga to cooking demonstrations to kyaking, to a climbing wall, and more. Or you may choose to simply sit by

fire and knit or sit by the lake and read. The week end culminates with a Mother's Day Brunch where participants are joined by thier families. Our own tradition includes a Friday evening trip to the Pattaconk Inn on Main Street in Chester, a local landmark.
