    Re: DATE CHANGE: Our 'AT HOME' 2-day ROHATSU RETREAT Dec 4-5

    Can someone explain in detail how to use G+ please. Do we just sign in and find the treeleaf group in realtime on the G+ web site, or do I have to download something? Sorry to be a pain but tech is moving too fast for this old falla

          No worries!

          After you've signed up and can access G+, there is a link on the right side of the page that says "Start a hangout". When you click that it'll open up a new window where you can start a new hangout, or, on the right side of that pop-up join one that is already going, should someone be sitting already.

            THE 'OFFICIAL' 2-DAY ROHATSU RETREAT WEB PAGE AND SCHEDULE IS UP !!

            http://www.treeleaf.org/sit-a-long/with ... eafat.html

            You will see a link to the live netcast, and this is also where links will be posted to each portion of the retreat as we go along, updating the links during the two days.

            The schedule is exactly the same a last year. Equivalent times are posted for North America and Europe so that folks can calculate which portions can be joined 'live' and which portions can be joined 'recorded' (but stil alive!).

            BE THERE AND SIT SQUARE!

                    Just a note that I corrected the schedule just now to be Sunday-Monday (not Saturday-Sunday as last year). Otherwise, the times are the same.

                            OK, think I have everything ready. Haven't had much time to practice Oryoki, so will just do my best to follow along. My bum ankle is acting up a bit with the cold weather, so may have to do more kinhin than listed, but hopefully it will hold up!

                            Hope everyone has a "not good, not bad" Rohatsu!
                            Thanks,
