We are on vacation in the land of generous people. Remember the last time I was here and had to rely on the kindness of strangers? That was a healing trip with plenty of alone time to write and to cry.
This trip is louder. It is a time to fish, play four square, eat crabs (and carbs!), and polish of pan after pan of brownies. The weather has been amazing. Shadow is having the time of her life chasing tennis balls up and down the huge hill that leads to the pond. I keep saying, "Jack would LOVE this!" It's hard to make a trip without him, but the alternative is to do nothing, ever, which I think would be worse.
My sister brought a 1000 piece baseball themed Jigsaw puzzle for us to set up on the table. Yeah, Jack would have loved that.
We have no wi/fi, so I'm at the cutest little country library just checking in to say hello to this caring community we have here. I hope you are doing well.
Oh, I also wanted to share the really crappy view off the back deck of the house we're borrowing:

ReplyDeleteHappy for you ...
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are all enjoying your trip - and you are correct...doing nothing would be much worse, and I'm pretty sure Jack would not have liked that at all. And that crappy view...must be painful to view each day! ;) Truly is gorgeous and hope the rest of your trip is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteJack would have loved that you are enjoying your life and that you think of him and what he would love. xo Diana

Sounds like a great trip! Enjoy the carbs and everything else, especially that crappy view. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks beautiful, and also, now I can't get brownies out of my head.
ReplyDeleteWe vacation in upstate NY in a tiny town that until this year had no wifi or internet or even cell phone connection. It was lovely to completely unplug for a whole week! Sounds like the perfect trip for you. I could do some damage to brownies too!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like paradise! Enjoy! Nova Mom Jen
ReplyDeleteHave fun! I agree that doing nothing would be ten times worse. That picture makes me very jealous :)
