Tybee Time Reflection

Tybee Time began twelve years ago as my friend and I sought a beach locale for Lenten retreat travel. Now thirteen Lents later, it's a fixture in our seasons of Lent. A shared place to reflect, ponder, and slow down. 

The sense of traveling small this year colored the days on Tybee Time. 

          Buying a few items at a small grocery and having them be enough. 

          Eating the food purchased rather than eating out. 

          Staying on Tybee Island with the exception of the hours of one day. 

          Walking to church. Walking to one beach.

          No shopping. 

          Making do with the lodging amenities provided. 

          Succinct and beautiful liturgies. 


Now returned home, it's another year until Tybee Time. In the meantime, I am rested and filled up with small travel.
