Home Again

Good Morning Sweet Blogging Sisters.
We have been away since last Saturday morning,
so I have a lot of catching up to do. 
That is after we rest from the trip . . .
unpack and wash our trip clothes,
and mow and pull the weeds that grew while we were away :)
We had a lovely trip visiting,
our daughter and granddaughters
and stopping at my brother and sweet sister-in-law's home 
for a short over night visit on our way back home.
 Following are a few photos from our trip.
 I had to take this . . .
doesn't it take you back in time.
We stopped at Multnomah Falls
on our trip home . . .
Teresa Kasner is a volunteer there
and I was hoping that it might be her day
to work the information booth,
so that I could meet her. 
It was not :(
Visit her lovely blog at:     
I have more photos, but they are 
pictures of family . . .
so for their privacy I don't post family photos . . .
except my two sweet fellows,
Steve & Butchy.
(sorry the pictures are so grainy)

Have a lovely weekend.

Keep Smiling!

Your blogging sister,
Connie :)

  8. How nice that you had a pleasant holiday. It must have been great seeing your daughter and granddaughters too.

  9. I'm so glad to hear you got to go visit family and also got to see some of my favorite places! I do wish I'd been in the Visitors Center when you came by.. did you tell the volunteer on duty that we're blog friends? Thanks for the shout-out!! I hope you come back soon on a day I'll be there and we can have a real-time hug! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  10. How nice to get away! Welcome home! I hope your little plants in your greenhouse fared okay. It does seem like there is so much work when one gets home from vacation but it is so nice to get away once in awhile! Nancy

  14. That Flying A looks like a "service" station. Remember when someone came out to pump your gas, wash your windows and check your oil!
