We had a lovely time taking a weekend away from the house all together as a group this year for our annual retreat. This time we went to Cape Cod – in Orleans on the outer cape. The house was nice, bedrooms on the bottom and living room / kitchen on the top – with views of the ocean!
We worked for many hours on various things related to a well-functioning cooperative entity. Especially we took time to work on a new “House Norms” document to help us see more clearly the things we expect from each other. Thanks to Yutaka for organizing that.
Nice sunrise on the Saturday morning – coming right out of the ocean!
Thanks to Samantha and Brittany for organizing the whole retreat. It was really a great time. And we even got down to the beach!
Whew! It was still a bit chilly there.
We worked around the living room to discuss issues and broke out into smaller teams to go over some of the terms we were exploring.
Then, after doing a lot of intellectual work, Dan led us in a group harmonica symphony!
Later on, we had a little dance party. That was a really fun time!
Yay for house bonding and getting some good stuff done!
