Home Again

We are home, at last.

We are snuggled deep under the down comforter in our comfy nest of a bed, candles burning, laptops blazing as we catch up and soon head for a night of blissful sleep. Outside, the wind is blowing, dark clouds fill the sky, rain falls and pellets the windows.

In our absence, winter has arrived in the Northwest. Long gone are the clear sunny skies and 85 degree temps in So Cal. ;0) But the sunshine of our grandson's smile when we stopped by to visit him before driving the last 30 minutes home more than made up for that...
