Our A+M Retreat on the island of Kea has been over now for a couple of weeks, and I want to say just a few things right now: We had a wonderful time, every day was full and interesting, and I am overflowing with gratitude toward all of you sweethearts, for being amazingly attentive, serious-and-humorous students during our twice daily classes. I mean it, you all made teaching immediately gratifying and inspiring for me. You helped me be a better teacher with your questions and sincere attention and responsiveness. Look, you even sent me this photo of Calf Stretching at the airport on your way home! |

And thanks to all of you for taking things as they come, so very sweet-tempered about things like ferry strikes, unseasonably cool weather, getting bossed around by me, and for being nice to our Alice. It was a great experience of everyday community for me, and I love you all!
