and I'm so grateful to live here. We left beautiful, snowy Yosemite this morning, the temperature registering 24 degrees, and after driving down winding mountain roads, we hit the highway and traveled through long stretches of orchards and farm land, the blue sky above and the coast only miles away. It's sixty-five degrees and sunny here in Los Angeles, there are mounds of laundry to do and much life waiting.
I hope ya'll had a happy new year's week. I can't wait to show you my photos and will do so tomorrow.
I am glad to know that you are back home and safe, even with mounds of laundry to do. I am looking forward to the pictures.
ReplyDeletewelcome home, dear elizabeth.
ReplyDeleteSometimes even with the ever present laundry, there is no place like home.
ReplyDelete27 here in CLE.
BRRRRR.
I love Yosemite. My sis married in the chapel there -- big party at the Awhanee. A very special magical valley and back country. Did it snow while you were there?
ReplyDeleteHome again, home again. Laundry or not, it's good to be home. Looking forward to the photos!
Can't wait to see them :)
ReplyDeleteI have driven through eastern California many times, coming from Denver to Orange County. Such happy memories. Glad you had a wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! It is a beautiful state, isn't it? I forget sometimes. I guess I see too much concrete. I think it's time for a car trip.
ReplyDeleteHome again, home again, jiggity jig. I always say that when we get home from a holiday. Looking forward to the pictures!
ReplyDeleteSo right. Some of my best memories are our visits to Sequoia National Park -- standing in waist high ferns and revering those ancient trees -- plus hiking in the Big Sur, hanging out in Monterrey and Carmel, dinner at Mustard's Grill in Yountville (on our honeymoon almost 30 years ago), and so much more. What a beautiful, diverse state. And, of course, Yosemite. Me too -- can't wait to see your photos + commentary.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're home safely and had a good time. I hope Sophie enjoyed it as well and I can't wait to see the photos. I'm hoping to use them to inspire my husband to take a trip to Yosemite soon...
ReplyDeleteso jealous. it's a high of 34 today here in sunny new jersey. that's just uncalled for! (im actually wearing my down coat and furry boots INSIDE my house while typing this).
