The Gang’s All Back!

Hubs and I have returned from our getaway. We stayed at this beautiful inn and spa on the marina on a river that led to the nearby ocean. The food was spectacular as were the people we met. Our younger son and girlfriend returned from their vacation in Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. They ate at all the hot restaurants, tried four ice cream stores, and hit four famous doughnut shops. They loved hiking through 3 National parks. The grandkids are home from camp, but our grandson is at goalie camp for a week now. Tennis camp follows the following week. Hubs and I are going out to lunch soon and then to buy me some jewelry. He bought me a diamond tennis bracelet for my anniversary gift forgetting I already have one. Our son’s jeweler can design a bracelet I have in mind if I don’t like what he has in stock. Let the fun begin! So happy the gang’s all back. It makes me feel extra good!

Welcome back! I wanna hear all your escapades!! I just think it was very rude of Tropical Storm Fred to be waiting for you when you got home. Hopefully you weren’t affected.

Thanks! I don’t think you’d want that table. People cut up their fish on it and then cook it on the grill next to it.

I read about your long weekend. I hope you and your family suck up every moment of relaxation and the holiday spirit. Actually, our son just stopped by for an hour’s visit as I sipped my martini and started dinner. Just left to see his girlfriend. Oh, the joys of being young!
