Home, sweet home

No matter how much we enjoy traveling and seeing friends and family, no matter how great the accommodations are (and we did have a very nice, though modest, hotel this trip), and no matter how much we'd like vacations to go on and on, we still enjoy coming home and sleeping in our own bed.

Fortunately, both Carolyn and I had taken today off so we could sleep in a couple of hours, eat a leisurely breakfast, and still get some of the outside work done before it got too hot.


The lawns needed mowing and the flowers needed watering. Things that we would normally have done last Saturday were screaming for our attention today.

Even the birds were upset at us for leaving them a bird feeder that was empty.

We really appreciate Ed & Tiff looking after our mail and newspaper so at least they weren't overflowing on our porch or mailbox.

Thanks to all of you who made our wedding/vacation a memorable event.
