In the short time I'm home,
I'll set up a few post commitments
and visit my blogging friends I've been missing!
See you shortly!
Damn, you are sure on the go, really going to and fro. Up, down and all around. Even going to where the cat is found lol
ReplyDeleteHey Pat! That's me on the go to and fro!
DeleteWelcome home my foot loose and fancy free friend!! Good to have you back even for a short while. You know the meaning of living life to the fullest! Enjoy! Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Peggy! I'm really feeling life is short and precious, and I want to make the most of it. I'll be playing catchup, again!
DeleteYou took quite the trip! Welcome back to CO (briefly). Enjoy the wildflowers while you're home.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barb! I will enjoy the wildflowers. I've been watching them for thousands of miles!!
DeleteWow, exciting!. I can imagine how great it feels to be home...
ReplyDeletebefore you set off again:)
happy travelling x
Continue to chase those dreams
Thanks, Dawna! It's wonderful to be home, and I so enjoyed my own bed last night! Hope all is well with you!
DeleteWelcome back! That is quite the view from the cable car. You were brave to ride the bus though.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alex! We had such a wonderful time. My twenty hours on a bus was actually three trips: ten, eight, and two hours on comfy buses. Hey, when you've done long bus rides in places like Costa Rica decades ago, these were great!
DeleteOh, what an exciting adventure you've been on. And another one coming up! What fun. I bet you're exhausted. But a good type of exhaustion, no?
ReplyDeleteExhausted ~ You said it! But it was worth it! We had an amazing time which I will share in later posts!
DeleteYour photos are gorgeous, Louise! A very warm welcome back! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! It's great to be back! Hugs to you!
DeleteWow, what a trip! And you're off to the Maritimes in a week? My Rare One and I are off to the Maritimes on Thursday! We're going to drive around Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI and then over to Cape Breton Island. I'm so excited! We're having lunch on Monday with Jim and Ron too -- finally getting to meet the boys in person!
ReplyDeleteOh lucky, lucky you, Debra! You and your Rare One will have a great time touring the Maritimes. I'll be seeing Ron and Jim two days after you! You will love these guys!!! They are flat out awesome! And so is Ms SD! Enjoy your trip. I can't wait to hear about it!
Deletethat's a lot of driving
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Adam! But it was great! Terry says, "Thank you, Adam!"
DeleteWow, what a wonderful holiday, and the cable car, you are so brave!!! Enjoy the next jaunt, and I'm sure we will see more photos of new places. So good to meet friends on the way.
ReplyDeleteHi Jean! I just had to get to the top of Mount Roberts ~ Notice I went alone! Haha! I have lots to share! Hugs to you!
