I’ve been thinking about the opportunities I’ve had to visit and spend time with family and friends…

one of the things I always do is wash up after meals… it started when I would visit my daughter wherever she lived… she has never liked doing dishes so it was a simple thing to do in appreciation for my time there…

whenever I have been camping with the kids, particularly when the boys were little, I would wash and have one of them dry… it was a great way to have one-on-one time and also get the job done quickly…

now, if I am visiting with friends at their cottages, it is one thing that I can do to be helpful…

one of my grandsons took this photo while we were camping this summer;-)…

had a great day in the garden… started with watering the grass and plants, and getting all the cushions out… then time in the pond cleaning the pump out and tidying some water grasses…

finally sat and enjoyed the space…

this was the special chair…

in the morning a friend came over for a visit… it was her birthday and we had a lovely visit… a few presents, some tasty snacks, and a great wander around the garden…

a short time later my sister-in-law and nephew came by with lunch… can’t think how long it has been since I’ve seen her… she had flown in for the weekend so it was a real treat to spend time with them…

great way to spend a Saturday;-)…
