ONE YEAR AGO TODAY


A change of pace, Gregg saw these on his Facebook page and gave them to me.  Many of you already know that they have a 'year ago today' feature.  

It is hard to believe that it has been a whole year since we went on our Alaska trip.  We started in Vancouver and had a couple of days before everyone else arrived.  In a local ice-cream shop we met this delightful couple we shared a table with.  It was one of those encounters when you meet friendly strangers who make the holiday a little extra special.

These photos are a bit blurry but you can read my post again here, where I also share many other photos from our time in Vancouver.

Also, to everyone out there who is celebrating, I would like to wish you all A Very Happy Cinco de Mayo.

  6. Where did that year go? If asked I would have said it was a couple of months ago that I read about your wonderful trip.

    1. I was saying that only the other day EC. In many ways it feels only a couple of months that we were there :)

  9. I know exactly what you are talking about. A couple weeks ago my wife and I were at a local park checking things out and were asked by a couple if we were locals by another couple who were from out of town. They asked a few questions but we ended up having about a 30 minute conversations about our favorite gardens and turns out we had seen a lot of the same sights. A great way to spend some time.

Thank you so for taking the time to leave a comment. I enjoy reading them very much and always try to return a visit. As I do monitor comments it may take a while for them to appear, even quite late depending on what is going on and how much time I am able to spend on the computer.

I appreciate all who look at my blog, but I won't be publishing any businesses. If you are only able to publish anonymously, would you sign your name please, and leave an addy so I can return your visit where possible? Thank you!
