Remember that we will be lifting them in and out of the vehicle. Please do not bring a small sports car, send someone who can't help me "tote and lift" the bags or bring a car that has its trunk filled with other items.
Lodging: in a hotel or motel. No private homes. At retreats, a private dorm room. In most cases, Karen will book her own hotel.
Meals: may be provided by a guild member. I can eat breakfast each morning at the hotel, providing that the hotel has a continental breakfast or complimentary breakfast bar or is there is a restaurant nearby.
