spending the week in california.
visiting with my dad and sheila.
a wonderful way to end the year.
the only problem is, i don’t want to leave.
i want to stay longer and soak in the air and all the beauty that surrounds me.
and laughing all day with my dad, well that, i never want to end.

our fourth year at lake shehawken.
each year we love it more and more.
a week full of just being.
along with swimming, sailing, canoeing and kayaking.
bald eagles, blue herons and beavers.
playing games, sewing, and cooking.
eating home cooked meals by the fire.
singing and making music.
fishing.
big fluffy clouds.
walks in the rain.
and our biggest outing was a few barn sales and farm stands.
