Peg and Joko
Originally uploaded by Jiki Syverson.

Joko was a real delight, as always, to be with. I was so happy to see her in Brenda's beautiful home, and to meet the members of her new sitting group. The zendo below is coming along beautifully, and should be a warm and inviting place for zazen. Joko's wing has spectacular views of boulders and trees, and the clear, crisp Arizona sky. She told me that when the December sesshin was announced it filled within five minutes. No surprise there! But she is planning future sesshins as well, so stay tuned if you think you might be able to travel there. Prescott is very beautiful: click on this image to see some of the landscape and other pictures from our trip.
