greetings from sunny california...

Here we are...

enjoying the sunshine...

...and the view from our deck.

Oh...and the company as well.
Three of my sisters have been vacationing at the same resort.

Bev flew home to Texas today...
the other two leave tomorrow.
We have some friends here as well...

...and enjoyed strawberry shortcake on their patio last night.
I have plenty of reading material...
sunscreen...
and a fridge that is well-stocked.

It's all good in this corner of the USA...
though we are very much aware of the devastation that is happening on the east coast.
Our hearts go out to all those who have been impacted by Sandy.

  2. It looks wonderful there! I could use some sunshine here today. Rain and wind, the tail end of Sandy. Enjoy your vacation!

  3. Sunshine - that is just the thing! We've had rain here for two weeks, with a bit of a clear break on Sunday. No more danger of forest fire, and the ponds are full - soon to overflow down to the creek. I love this time of year, but nonetheless, I'd enjoy a jolt of sunshine. Make the most of the pool/reading/sunning time!

  10. What could be better? Time in the sun, moments with your sisters, books to read and strawberry shortcake sounds like the perfect combination. I hope you enjoy it all.

  12. It's great you were able to have a mini family reunion, Judy! Enjoy the rest of your stay in CA!

    We were incredibly lucky to escape with very little hurricane damage. our hearts and prayers go out to those who weren't so fortunate.
