sweet retreat

Saturday midday, left the boys happily doing their thang....


and fetched the gorgeous Bridge to head for these ....


for some of this....



and one of these....


in between lying around like this....

(what is it about a pristinely clean, white toweling bath robe?)

consuming yet more of this.....

(Please note presence of books indicating periods of time spent in, (as were termed the 15 minutes immediately following lunch break at my High School...) U.S.S.R or Uninterrupted Sustained Silent Reading....)

And then driving back to the city after more than 24 hours of adult conversation, a good night's sleep, a belly full of home-made treats, some looking at and some discussion of art, and the pleasurable thought of coming home to our boys, refreshed. Thanks sweet Bridge, what a joy!

Oh it looks like a lovely 24 hours! I wish my bath was in the bathroom and not the car port!!! The very act of putting on a 'fluffy white' bath robe can get me in the mood to unwind and to curl up with a book for some U.S.S.R. is delightful.
