Birthday Week-end

A sweet friend was celebrating her 65th birthday, so what a great reason for a week-end away.  Ten of us rented a house for the week-end at Lake Cavanaugh (a new destination for me).  It was a modern, architect designed house, perched on a hillside.  [Unfortunately in the middle of the night it reminded me too much of Oso, but luckily there were no landslides.]  Friday the weather was nice, Saturday was grey and drizzly and today dawned foggy but with promises of loveliness.  That turned out to be true.

That Happy Birthday banner would be easy to duplicate.  Interesting in the fog, on Sunday,

An easy and uneventful drive home.  After some lunch a lovely walk seemed appropriate - so a jaunt to a nearby park to enjoy the sunshine.

Autumn is definitely upon us.

This is a 2 day babysitting week, with those funny little girls.  Here is one of the glamorous ladies I care for,

[Nana didn't get the books all picked up before this shot.]  It is fabulous that they enjoy books and reading so much.

Hope you are finding some sunshine in your days.
