It is rare when someone enters your life and you learn one of the simpests of life’s lessons as a product of that relationship. One such relationship graced our lives—and yes, it was a dog, a Golden Retriever named Sundance.

It was from Sundance that we learned about forgiveness, unconditional love, loyalty to others, how to have fun and appreciate the little things in life.

Sundance was with us for nine very short years. But, her impact lasts a lifetime. 

She understood life’s simplest lessons of how to appreciate quiet time and natural settings.  Her excitement was visible in seeing new things in nature, the trees, running in the open woods, resting when you needed it and taking nice walks.

When we first saw the Nevada City house that was soon to be ours, we recognized that it had all the elements that Sundance appreciated.

It was very clear that this retreat was to be named in her honor.
