We went from sea level…
And the beach…
To the mountains!
Listened to the surf…
And rode bikes in the mountains!
Saw my family… 
Howard, Mutty and Jeff
Rick with Patty, Heather and Mark
Rick’s family… 
Kathy and Skip with Rick and Me
Good friends... 
Jane in Cleveland
Maryanne in Columbia, SC
And even found some vintage glasses and a Feemster slicer (I already have one; had to get another!) at a yard sale! Plus, a $2.00 shower curtain at a thrift shop!
six glasses, $1.25
New Shower curtain: $2.00!
It was a glorious vacation! And we were indescribably happy!
I will be making several “V” posts – or vacation posts over the next few days. Since I missed you all so much while traveling, I thought the least I could do was offer a few souvenirs!
So comments on this post and any marked “V” (this is V-1) will be entered to win my souvenir packet! I’ll post a photo later, but it will include items from West Virginia, Banner Elk (North Carolina) and Myrtle Beach (South Carolina).
Next time: A visit to Cleveland -- then on the road!
Wow! It looks as if you had a great vacation. What could be better than family, friends, food, and bargains! Those glasses are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have you back.
What a great vacation! The best of both worlds (beach and mountains = my favs). Can't get any better than that, plus the family friends and your awesome bargains! Who could beat that?
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!

I love your photos (especially the beach ones) and can see why it's hard toget back to real life.

i missed you dear :)
Glad you had such a wonderful holiday! Great snaps and I adore those vintage glasses! xo
ReplyDeleteI googled "let Rick ride" 'cause he didn't answer the phone when I called-and I find pictures of you guys at a couple of my favorite places from our years of travel! Those would be Grandfather Mountain (The end of the extremely difficult "Bridge to Bridge" ride, and the Virginia Creeper trail-we've done that half a dozen times, but we always ride up.
ReplyDeleteI hope to see you and Rick prior to DALMAC-It looks like he'll be pirating it from what I read.
Have him call me.
