My husband and I came back from a two week trip to NYC so that we could attend some family events, and visits with friends. .<br />It is a blessing your Dad is able to enjoy travel and events with you! Your photos are all glorious.<br />Your grandchildren are all growing up so beautifully! Our older granddaughter will be attending morning preschool this year. The baby granddaughter just turned one month old. Time passes so quickly.<br /><br />We have had so much rain this spring and summer in Colorado--natives tell us they have never seen it so green in July! I hope you get some of this rain there soon!<br /><br />Love you new blog header--I need instructions on how to make one this size, my blog needs a serious update ;)Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-44542913496378102022015-07-14T04:24:20.859-07:002015-07-14T04:24:20.859-07:00Sitting here with my cup of morning coffee, you ca...Sitting here with my cup of morning coffee, you can imagine how thrilled I was to see another post of yours! The banner picture was a beautiful greeting for me, and then spending time looking at all the pictures and reading about every one, was a special way to start out my day. The picture of you and your dad is so good! What a treasure it is for you to share with him in his birthdays at this time of his life. It must have been a blessing for him to observe his grandson and great-grandson in their hockey<br />world. <br /><br />Sitting on that beach by the lake would be something I would thoroughly enjoy, especially with a good<br />book in hand. Wow! Such gorgeous country scenes you share always. Even with the very dry weather you are experiencing, beauty abounds.<br /><br />I think the Beach Boy's music makes every beach adventure more fun:)<br /><br />Enjoyed this post so much!Just a little something from Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07436711032386582707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-59466823014616223852015-07-05T08:29:39.300-07:002015-07-05T08:29:39.300-07:00Thank You I am.Thank You I am.Mesajhttp://sozleri-mesajlari.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-86260395345627340432015-07-04T08:57:51.687-07:002015-07-04T08:57:51.687-07:00What a wonderful post, gave me some ideas for our ...What a wonderful post, gave me some ideas for our travels!

Anyhow, you had me curious at to where Hawkins Pickle Road might be, since I have never heard of it. I did some research...and learned that it is about a 40 minute drive from my place. Did you once live in this area? Smiling about your neighbour's 'all-Canadian' Fiat 500!

I think that has to be my all-time favourite street name. The flags at Whistler look beautiful, as does the flag flower bed at the top of your post. Recently, I saw that one of our neighbours bought a new white Fiat 500, with two red racing stripes right over the top. I found myself wishing that he'd painted a maple leaf between the two wide red lines on the trunk, to make a flag out of it. If I knew him better I might suggest it. If I could afford another car, I might do it myself!! Happy Canada Day!

Your corner of the world is looking lovely, but, like ours, I'm sure it's slowly browning under these dry, hot skies. <br />Fun retirement center pieces.

Incredible how tall they have become and whatever happened to Ryder's head of curls? They've been tamed! He is one handsome hockey player. He and his great-grandfather make a great pic. Ahhh...thank goodness for Lucy still being in preschool. It helps somehow. Hope that some gentle, refreshing rains come your way soon. It pours here every few days as it is doing now. Happy Dominion Day! Oops...Canada Day!

Oh well, Maybe we'll make up for it in July. Do you suppose? It was nice to see some familiar places in your post and the beauty is amazing as always.
