I Have A Dream, Explained

Leenie thought that perhaps my dream, mentioned in an earlier post, might have something to do with a RU in Boulder Creek: don't panic, Lee, it ain't so.

My dream (our dream, actually, for we see eye to eye on it) is this:

• to instill an atmosphere of light, space, and serenity in this corner of the world;

• to build in private areas for each of us, where we can have a modicum of solitude; and working together, to make our common areas beautiful and restful, as well as useful for us;

• to establish a "pilgrims' inn" of sorts, or a retreat house if you like -- where, during our occupation, we can offer a place for anyone who is weary of the world below to come and rest in quiet peace for a time;

• to create a legacy for our children and grandchildren for the future -- when we are bound for glory (or whatever), we'd like to leave a place that will be available to all of you when you need surcease from your labors.

I'd like to say more about the last two points, in the next post.
