Rise Up! 2011 with Julie Dohrman

Narrowly escaping hurricane Irene, Julie Dohrman headed upstate to Heathen Hill Retreat center and farm, with 8 other valiant yoga devotees and those desiring a weekend out of the city. What a weekend we chose! Preparing for Irene to blast through included candlelit yoga, filling buckets of water in the bathrooms if the power goes out, and making sure everyone had flashlights! We were already kinda prepared for no power since there's no cell service or wi-fi on the property. Alas, we survived.  It was a great adventure and it  reminded us of camp. Camp with a hot tub, plenty of wine, and the coolest counselor (Lip, you win hands down), and all your favorite bunk mates.
