End of day, end of stay

I’m writing tonight as our last night here at the cabin. I’ve posted several blog entries today, so if you are interested, please read backward a bit to see them all. I guess I felt the need to catch up a bit more before we left.

This morning we took our coffee and walked down to Serenity Point (as we’ve named it.)




Note to self: Next time I want/need to enjoy some serenity, leave the dogs behind in the cabin.

We are as ready and packed as we can get tonight. We just made the last walk with the dogs down to the bottom and back. They all know that we are leaving tomorrow as they’ve watched the progress of packing up all day long. I would like to think that they are as ready as we are.

The hummingbirds are not happy with us as we just now took down the feeders. They are in a frenzy of sugar withdrawal. I feel bad for them.

I emptied the bird feeders and along with it, all the junk food that we did not eat. So, the beasties will be feeding on Cheez Doodles (better known as Cheeze Do-dos) and stale potato chips and Chex cereal.

I have to say that given the extreme fire danger here, I took some extra photos of the cabin in case I might not see it standing again. Don’t ever take anything for granted. Not in this wild country.

If not this fire that continues to chew away at all the beetle kill, another one might take it. You just don’t know.

Our time here was good. But we are ready to resume our normal lives again and pick the threads of our lives back up again on the other side of the country.

We’ll see you on the flip side! Thanks so much for joining us on our journey west. I hope you enjoyed your vacation!

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
