A visit to Troy, NY and Allan’s fraternity house. Somehow MJ got me to stop off at a frat house on our way to a yoga retreat. I loved Kripalu. I loved laughing with MJ at some of the over-erneastness (it was like being at freshman orientation at the crunchiest college ever). But I loved it. Breakfast in silence, meditation and mantra workshops, and yoga outside looking a lake and mountains. We went to Mass MOCA and Tanglewood. It was so nice to sit outside and listen to Aaron Copeland (MJ loves Appalachian Spring). I want to take the children.
