It seems like we are regaining hope
After being unable to visit family or friends, along with everyone else, it looks like there may be cause for hope. We are getting more vaccines across the country. The American Rescue Plan has been passed by Democrats and signed by President Biden. I was able to get my first vaccine 2 weeks ago. My … Continue reading It seems like we are regaining hope
Anniversary Trip to the Fogcatcher Inn in Cambria
I have always wanted to stay on Moonstone Drive in Cambria. For our anniversary this year we booked a room for the night at the Fogcatcher Inn. We had an ocean view with a gas fireplace and a huge comfy King-sized bed. Be prepared as the only heat in the room was the fireplace, we … Continue reading Anniversary Trip to the Fogcatcher Inn in Cambria
It’s been a long time and we’ve been renovating
We have spent all of our time since we came home from Wales renovating our home. If you ever decide to renovate your home be prepared, it's a huge undertaking that costs way more than you expected and takes way longer than you ever imagined. We are still not finished and now some of the … Continue reading It’s been a long time and we’ve been renovating

Last Day in Fuquay and it’s another gorgeous day
Another wonderful breakfast made by Patty. She's such an awesome person and a great cook. We took another walk around the area, this time heading out through the Fuquay-Varina Mineral Springs Park. Really pretty little park and there are roadways with little traffic and connecting dirt roads to extend your walk. We headed on over … Continue reading Last Day in Fuquay and it’s another gorgeous day
Beautiful Day in Fuquay-Varina
Got up this morning to beautiful blue skies, cooler temps and low humidity. After one of Patty's wonderful breakfasts Chris and I set off on a short walk around the neighborhood. We saw a few limbs down but for the most part people had already cleaned up the worst of it. We saw some great … Continue reading Beautiful Day in Fuquay-Varina
Good Morning Fuquay! It’s Raining
Michael hasn't made it's presence known other than lots of rain. They're predicting high winds but we are far enough away that it shouldn't be too much of an issue...I hope. It's pouring rain right now and the wind is blowing pretty hard. Spending the day sitting in Chris's folks living room staying dry and … Continue reading Good Morning Fuquay! It’s Raining
Off we go to Fuquay-Varina Again
On our way for another visit to Fuquay-Varina, North Caroline where we have family. We just arrived at our "home for the night" before we take a Southwest flight leaving at 6:30 in the morning. The only place I could get a room in San Jose for a manageable price near the airport when I … Continue reading Off we go to Fuquay-Varina Again

We had a wonderful time shopping at L.L.Bean. They have a huge Petite section in the store and I found several … Continue reading Heading to Bar Harbor
Last Full Day in Portland, ME
Got up, showered and made it to breakfast, ugh. One of the all time worst hotel breakfasts I've ever had; very overcooked, very cold scrambled eggs and very cold, soggy potatoes, the muffin was great and the coffee was weak. Happily that was the worst part of the day and the rest of the day … Continue reading Last Full Day in Portland, ME
First Full Day in Maine
Woke up at 8:00 this morning after getting an amazing nights sleep. Chris was still asleep so I made myself some coffee and tried to be quiet. It was lightly raining outside and the weather widget said it was probably going to be a pretty nice day. Chris woke up about 8:45 and we began … Continue reading First Full Day in Maine
