Even though we left Virginia 10 days ago, I am just today back to my simple, settled routine. The day we drove home we were only here long enough to unpack and repack for a five day camping trip in Yellowstone. It was marvelous. We logged 30 miles of awesome hiking, watched grizzlies, wolves, and black bears. We even spied a coyote catching a current in the Yellowstone River. Like all trips to my favorite Park, this one was peaceful and refreshing. After arriving home my days were spent cleaning, doing laundry, grocery shopping, and of course a trip to Missoula to get the generator repaired (because I so had time for that!). But today the laundry is done, the cupboards are full, and I have time to share a few pictures from the five weeks I spent with my family. The time with my family was a treasure. We did many fun things but the time I enjoyed the most were just the days we spent living together. My little brother and I spent many days together-those were especially priceless. Being with my dad on Father's Day this year was very special, he just lost his dad a few months ago. I was with my mom everyday and I gleaned so much from our moments together-lots of bonding, laughs, and stories from the past...things that will and have made me a better mom.
Temperatures here are in the 70s and 80s. Never can I remember a time when I loved summer so much! I have big plans....I will walk in the sun, sleep in the sun, eat in the sun, walk in the sun, relax in the sun. No boxes to pack or unpack, no houses to buy or sell, no moving trucks. Yeah, my plans are big.....I plan to live a simple live, in a simple home, in a simple place. |
