Sample (back to Individual Retreats Home Page) Sunrise Deep breaths, stretching, sounds of the early mountain waking. Good time for meditation. Juice or fruit, perhaps some cereal. I have got to have a cup of coffee.
Morning walk or run. Just outside of our lodge there are hundreds of ski trails, quiet roads, a golf course and a driving range. [If it is raining, take a number of laps in our pool, or a careful jog in the mountain rain.] After your shower, go easy on perfumes. They attract insects. Mid Morning Activities (pack a nutritious snack and
water) Picnic Lunch -many general stores and roadside grills (or a café –if it’s raining) are available for take out. Find a wooded area, or stream (bring bug repellant, you never know) Afternoon, a wonderful time to visit a working mill, factory, or other unique shopping emporium. Or, if there is a craft fare going on, make sure you find yourself nearby in the afternoon. For Dinner, there has to be at least 50 places to visit within a 25-mile radius of our lodge. Or, perhaps, if you are a strict nutritionist, we could plan to meet you for simple preparations in our kitchen. Must be pre arranged. Still, from 6 – 9 PM in the summer months, the best place to be is on a pond or lake with a fishing rod in your hands, and a delicious sandwich, and a nice drink. That’s meditation. All of our TVs are set up for vcrs and dvds (we do not have them available at the, but you may bring your own) We have a Big Screen TV in the lounge, and may on occasion run a sport tape or something our guests may bring. Before bed, take an evening walk under the stars. There is a safe place in the Snowshed and Ramshead Base lodge areas for easy wandering at night. Don’t forget to enjoy some gentle stretching before hitting the pillow. Check with the front desk, to see if there is anything good on the big screen TV, find someone to shoot a game of pool, piece together a puzzle, or find a good book. The summer evenings on Killington are fantastic.
