Peter has spent a number of days up at Gembrook this month. The reasons were to do with building maintenance and renovation there. The place is called Gembrook Retreat, a Quaker retreat, at present going through renovations in order to better serve guests. We have an earlier blog entry about this place. It has a power and a beauty that always blows Peter over. Whatever the time of day the view, the spaces, the fellowship are a tonic to the soul. These recent pictures are taken early in the morning when the mist hung low.


Even though the retreat receives a few guests at present, it still had a lot to do to increase and improve the accommodation facilities. At the moment there is a main building, two cottages, and a caravan (for a totally secluded experience). There nature feels close and the soul takes its rest from the faraway city life.
