We are just starting to make re-entry after a long trip west.
We drove cross country to Victoria BC (well, to Vancouver and ferried to Victoria)
and I flew off to Portland to teach at the Knit and Crochet Show while Jim hung out with family for the 5 days of the show. Then we drove back home again – so we were away for almost 3 weeks…… and the weather was gorgeous (except for driving through the snow storm in the mountains – erg).
We came home to incredible hustle and bustle as relatives were arriving for a visit at the same time as we were dragging our weary selves through the door….. and Jim had a gig today, so whew….
So, we’re just getting our bearings.
We just asked each other why other people go away on holidays and come home all refreshed, when we are cross eyed with exhaustion?
It’s a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng drive………….. pretty, but lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng……….
There were some really lovely times! am working on photoshopping the pics…..
more to follow……….

What a nice photo. Hope you had fun. Glad it was a safe trip.
Thanks so much, TattingChic!
We were so lucky to have glorious weather almost the whole time! Last night, the temperatures plummeted and the rain started…. brrrrrrrrr! I would not like to be sleeping in our drafty little old trailer right now! whew!
