A Respite

 
Posted by Picasa

A special gift of a weekend retreat....what a wonderful thing!

Our dear Kelley's extended family graciously allowed us use of their delightful mountain town home for the weekend while we moved Skye into her Boone apartment for her senior year at Appalachian.

Last Friday, after assembling a desk & a chest of drawers, & arranging for a mattress & frame to be delivered, we ate a delicious supper in Boone, then headed to our weekend retreat.

From the rocking chairs on the shaded deck to the white-washed cathedral ceilings to the quilt-covered comfy beds, it was the perfect place to rest, read, (enjoy my morning coffee 'which' Keith delivered to me in bed:)--will mark that down on my calendar in RED!), cook breakfast, and watch TV:) We lingered there Saturday morning, resisting any urgency to get out & explore, go shopping, or finish decorating Skye's apartment:)

And situated right between Boone & Blowing Rock:)

A blessed respite:)
Thank you to Kelley's family:)
