We've Arrived!
After leaving First Church this morning at 6:50am....we arrived here at Ghost Ranch at 6:00pm. Dick and Rich drove our two vans three hours from the Albuquerque airport to Abiquiu just in time for us to have a quick bite for dinner (we found out the dining hall closes at 6:30pm, so it made our trip all the more urgent!) A nice meal of yellow rice, peppers and chicken on a tortilla with salad.
Checked in at the main office and received our room assignments and information. The facilities are at once both comfortable and rustic in a gorgeous wooded area in the cradle of striking rock formations. The sun was just beginning to set as we unpacked our things after dinner and headed over to the Agape Center for a brief meeting led by Dick and Georgia to talk about our fears and hopes for the trip.
Tomorrow we'll be having an orientation session and learning a bit about this remarkable facility.
Breakfast is a 7:30am....
(There's no cellphone service here, so we're not easily reached by phone. The computer center here is nicely appointed -four terminals!- and we have limited wi-fi access...So, posts may be a bit sporadic, but we'll be sure to leave messages here at least once a day)
