Vacation

Two weeks vacation is so refreshing for the mind…mostly from not answering the phone and emails and not hearing the constant buzz of machines all day.  This year’s movie was Cinderella which I shall post here when it’s edited. 11 days on Orcas, about 12 hours at home to sleep and do 5 loads of laundry and 4 days down at Seabrook on the coast. Wonderful to go, wonderful to come home.

"Wonderful to go, wonderful to come home." That is exactly how I felt about our summer trip, too.

Cinderella movie - can't wait!!!
