    Dear Stacey,
    Thanks so much for sharing the announcement on the Women’s
    Executive Retreat 2009 in northern Wisconsin. It was a magical 3 days of learning, relaxing, and bonding. Jody Glynn Patrick’s blog captures it perfectly at http://www.ibmadison.com/afterhours. We already have next year’s date set for July 22-26, 2010 in the same gorgeous north woods resort.

    I can’t stop thinking of Maya Angelou’s words from her poem “Our Grandmothers”–”I go forth/alone, and stand as ten thousand.” It’s a wonderful feeling to be connected.

    And thanks for your tremendous web site. I’m having a hard time deciding which links to follow first!

    Best Wishes,
    Kathleen
