Autumn Getaway

Last week, Rick & I took a rare week off together & drove a little distance north. This is one of the paths we walked, as we enjoyed reflecting on our many blessings...
...one of them being a succesful six month checkup for Rick at the cancer clinic, what a great relief that is! Reason to celebrate & give thanks!!!
We were joined for the last few days by my sister & bro-in-law - I gotta say - she makes the absolute best eggs benny!! I should say they - Ron poached the eggs to perfection. What a man.
Rick went on a hike by himself one afternoon (which I wouldn't recommend, since Viv & I had a close encounter with a black bear one evening) but he snapped some nice shots of God's creation. This one reminds us to keep looking up, even if there's alot of "stuff" in the way.

The first four days of our vacation, we were joined by our wonderful children & grandchildren. It was, at times, close fellowship and at all times - great fun!
Practicing for 2010; they still need some work on form, but enthusiasm is high...
...always good to relax in the hot tub after a day on the slopes (or just in the village)
This lucky grandma got lots of quality cuddle time - what else are you gonna do when you've got 11 people in a 2 bedroom condo?
Good Times!!!
