well, after grocery shopping and packing up what felt like tons of stuff, we set off on our adventure…

we have returned to the superb Airbnb that we spent a week at last year…

it took about two and a half hours from leaving the house to sitting on the deck with tea and a refresher…

didn’t take very long to unpack the groceries and our personal stuff… then we headed to the upper deck to enjoy the scenery and our drinks…

as I sat there I listened to the waves gently lapping the shore, and heard the warblers, vireos, and sparrows singing in the trees nearby… and we’d already watched a couple of ducks working on their afternoon snacks as a pelican fly by…

what a delightful treat this time together is;-)…
