The most important things are not things…
Hello, sweet friend…
I hope you are enjoying your summer and staying cool…
I’ve recently returned from a magical mini trip to California…
It was nice to spend time with family…
and friends…
while enjoying the sights and sounds…
of southern California…
during the summer…
which is always great fun…
The greatest fun of all though
was being able to surprise a sister for her 70th birthday.
Thank you for the reminder that the most important things…. are not things!
I am sure your sister was truly surprised and very grateful for her birthday celebration.
You looked like you had some real fun, too!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful experience.
Thank you Jose! Yes…she was very harp and surprised
A very special thank you for sharing your mini-vacation to California with us. The Mission Inn Hotel was beautiful and certainly looked like a wonderful place to find some quiet little corner and some peace and serenity. Helped me to remember my last trip to the Palmer House in Chicago for a HERA (Humanities, Educators, Research Association) Conference in the early months of 2020 before the Covid shut downs started. I love the Palmer and have been there through work and Hera many times. It is also stunningly beautiful. But I digress. Surprising your sister must have been a real treat. And your Disney visit looks like truly great time for you. What a great time you must have had, and looked stunning– as always!!!! Enjoyed your packing tips and am so pleased to be able to share this time thru your eyes. Thanks again.
Hi Nancy, your trip to the Palmer House in Chicago must have been wonderful! So glad you were able to go before the pandemic. Yes, this surprise Birthday visit was very special in So many ways. I’m very grateful that everything worked out so well. Thank you for your kindness and good wishes. Hope you are enjoying our re-opening world
