Amazing.......

Amazing.......is the smell of our home.....especially after being gone for 10 days!  

Before we left on vacation, I made sure that all dishes were clean, the trash was emptied, the toilets were flushed, beds were made and the gardenia scents were out.   All of this sure makes it great when you open the door for the first time, after being gone.

I am so thankful for safe travels for each of our (3) vehicles. 

 Our trip yesterday was a bit nervy!  As we were traveling through Baton Rouge, Louisiana.....a police officer passed us on Interstate 12 ....when suddenly a car pulled out in front of the officer's car.   With the officer having to throw on his brakes so quickly, this sent his vehicle into a spin that seemed to never stop. He hit the wall several times and this really caused a whole lot of damage to the officer's car, plus a blowout on his tires.

His car was about a 100 yards in front of our suburban and we watched in panic as this well trained officer worked to keep his car upright.   We pulled over to help, as I could see that he hit his head on a part of the vehicle as he was spinning.   We immediately called 911.  Thankfully, no other cars were involved in this accident.   BTW.....the car that pulled out in front of the officer kept going...evidently they had no clue what had happened!!

YOU KNOW...... it is wonderful to be able to get away for a few days......In doing so, it refreshes the body and soul.    

I'll post photos tomorrow!! 

Hope you all enjoyed a fabulous weekend....

Headed Home

Oh wow......

What a fabulous week it has been!!  Our Florida adventure has been packed with lots of adventure and lots of sun and sand!  

 I even road a bicycle.... Can you believe that?  Riding an old bike is truly a whole lot of fun.   This bike was actually new, with the old kind of BIG seat and handle bars!

My somewhat pale skin now has a sun kissed glow to it....   Wish it would last, but more than likely, the pigmentation will slowly turn lighter.  

This has been a computer free vacation and I must admit that I kinda enjoyed my time without pecking at the keys.  Sad thing is that I have to wait until I get home to post pictures..

We are on the road now, heading back to the beautiful state of Texas....   Prayers please for safe travels!!

One great thing about traveling home is the fact that ALL of our clothes are clean and ready to put up when we get there.  I made sure to get all of the laundry done before we packed.   YeA.....

Hope you all have a terrific weekend!!!  Talk to you on Monday!!
