Today was an amazing day. We started with morning worship at the monastery. The place was as beautiful as I remembered. I got to see Sister Lynn and introduce her to Joel, but in an ironic twist, the other two sisters were in Iowa for the weekend. Worship was contemplative, meaningful, and exactly what my soul needed. So was the 45 minute walk in the prairie afterward.
After our walk and a quick lunch, we loaded up the car, then Stephanie took us to her workplace - Epic Software. Their campus is, in a word, mind-blowing. Every building has a different theme, conference rooms have different themes, even hallways do - they go ALL OUT. And we already know how much I love themes. There's an Alice in Wonderland building, an Indiana Jones hallway, different conference rooms masquerade as a circus, a galaxy, an airplane hangar, a frozen tundra and more. There's an entire tree house dedicated for creative meeting space. There are multiple building that are HARRY POTTER themed. Sad news, I didn't get to see those today, as they aren't open to the public yet. But Stephanie invited us back anytime, so I will go see those this summer! I'll close with a bunch of pictures from the buildings.
XOXO, Bethany
