Lake George, NY – It is a beautiful August weekend on Lake George in upstate New York. The Wiawaka Holiday House sits along 1500 feet of shoreline and the women who come here can swim, walk along forested and flowered paths or just sit in quiet serenity. It's in this serene setting that about a dozen women veterans gathered for three days for an Arts and Healing Retreat. North Country Bureau Chief Pat Bradley met with some of the women who talked about their experiences in the military and why they came to a retreat exclusively for women vets.
