Getaway

June 04, 2012


Spent the weekend on the beach with my wonderful husband celebrating our 24th anniversary (very belatedly—our actual anniversary is in January!). I’m a little sunburned, despite sunscreen and shade, but more relaxed than when we left. It was such a pleasure to be away from responsibility and to-do lists, to be with each other with only fun on the agenda. We walked on the beach, swam, did a lot of reading and poked around in some antiques stores and a flea market. I even did a little sketching:


Our room:


Sea grapes--I've never seen the grapes before!


Don't these look inviting?


It was a great way to start our summer. Hope your weekend was just as happy!

  4. Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate your anniversary, even if late. Congrats! We'll be married 35 years in August - hard to believe! We'll be driving home from Colorado on our actual anniversary.

    Love your sketch page!
