We decided to hit the road this Memorial Day Weekend and head down to Southern California for a little R&R at my BFF's house this Memorial Weekend. After a rocky trip down there and over 11 hours in the car due to a tanker explosion on the 91 FWY, we were welcomed with hugs & champagne. You just can't beat that. The kids played, swam and rode bikes - all the while we drank wine, sat by the pool, laughed a lot and caught up on television shows I've dearly missed (Um, I caved and had to watch the Grey's Anatomy finale and the SNL featuring Betty White!).
Hanging out with a dear friend and her family was just what the doctor ordered. It went fast, but it was worth the long journey. The trip home went much smoother and I'll never tire of driving up our lane, seeing our multi-colored home and outbuildings dotting the hillside and the cows roaming on the pasture behind us. Never. There is no place like home.
