Starwae
John Curry, Starwae, Sonoma, CA, Canon Digital Rebel
I just returned from a most magical retreat with SARK at a bed and breakfast called Starwae in Sonoma. I've been trying to plan pre-baby getaways for myself and when SARK told me about this event I leapt at the chance to assist her.
It was an intimate weekend affair with 20 amazing women. We laughed, we shared, we made art and we ate some of the most delicious food I have ever had. (Made by the talented John Curry and Janice Crow, the owners of Starwae)
Janice and John are incredible artists and have made Starwae into so much more than a bed and breakfast. It is a place to be nourished creatively and transformed. It is filled with art and sculpture and gardens, birds and fruit trees and warm air.
SARK will be leading another workshop the weekend of October 28th and 29th. There are a few more spaces available if any of you are inspired to go. It will transform you!

Hope you and your soon-to arrive little one are doing great!!!!!!!! :) Many blessings to you!!

I bet SARK would be such a delightful person to meet. I do enjoy her creative books so much.

Posted by: stef at September 19, 2006 04:40 PMHow lovely your retreat sounded... SARK is a joy. I love her writings and her art, and I too would have "jumped" at the chance to be involved. Also, I love the photo of John Curry. He looks like a wise soul with a zest for life. The Starwae Inn sounds amazing too. I am so wishing I could do SARKS Oct.28 & 29 retreat...but sadly I have another commitment.

Posted by: Anja at September 19, 2006 02:31 PMThat photo just melts my heart. What a wonderful man - what a wonderful couple. It was just LOVELY meeting you and I can't wait to see you again! You are such an inspiration. :)
XOXO,
