Why Did We Have to Leave?

Re-entry into the "real" world hasn't been the easiest. It was very hard to leave the cottage behind.  Can you blame me when the view from the deck in the evening glows as golden as this?

When something as simple as a walk leads you down a lane this perfect?

Where it's ok if you knit all day long, even when you're a growing boy who only sits still long enough to eat mass quantities of food:

My nephew, knitting...



Where swimming is fun for everyone: Humans,

Swimming at Grand Lake



and dogs alike:

Pippin loves swimming



When your bed buddy is as cute as this?

Where, when the sun shines, you can't imagine why you would want to be anyplace else?

  2. Yeeeeaaaahhh....that sounds nicer than sitting in my apartment sweating all day at the computer, burning my eyes out, then going to bed in a hot hot room and listening to transfer trucks, motorcycles and loud drunk people go up Hollis Street all night......

  6. A place where people don't cranky and yell at you while you're eating breakfast because the internet is not working? Who would want to leave there.

    Glad you had fun.
