Celebrating Cozy Autumn Days

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, 

shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

 Philippians 4:7

Last day of September ~ only 31 days until November

Thank you, one and all, for your good wishes. Yes, I had a wonderful trip and delightful visit with my mother and nine of my siblings.

I took my camera but did not take even ONE photo. Can you believe it? I was having too good of a time and just did not feel like spending any of it behind the camera.

I left home in late summer and returned in early fall. It is amazing that September has already come to an end. And guess what. It is only eight short weeks until Thanksgiving Day ~ my favorite of all holidays.

Summer Memories

 This is back when all my children were still living at home.

Greetings From Lake Tahoe

 Midweek we headed up Highway 50 to South Lake Tahoe

a two hour trip there, two hours back.

It is a great day trip destination,
especially when It is 100 degrees in the valley and only 83 degrees at the lake.

We planned a picnic at Pope Beach (above);
 however, the yellow jackets were as thick as flies,
so we ate our lunch on the run.
Our picnic was not the highlight of our day, anyway.
The highlight was enjoying a beautiful day as a family.

Walking Across the Golden Gate Bridge

 In the 34 plus years I have lived in California, 

I have never walked across the Golden Gate Bridge...

Until this weekend.

 My nephew is visiting California for the first time.

We thought it was a good time to make this walk.

 It was a foggy morning.

 It is a 1.5 miles one way -
from the parking lot on one side to the visitor center on the other.
