Relaxing at the cabin and visitors

My girlfriend has a little cabin on Hood Canal on the Olympic Peninsula. We had an extremely relaxing three days there - four of us - all friends for 40 years. One of the GF brought an old high school year book with her and we had hours of fun looking thru - see old boyfriends, people who are still their friends and sadly they knew all the people who had died too. But it was mostly lots of laughs.


And this is her front yard - nice, no?



We ate and ate again (boy, I am going to have to go on more than one kind of diet when I get home!!)

And I got a little knitting done with all the talking, and a little walking too.
We had a lovely little visitor the last night we were there - came in for some dog food.





We didn't get too close as they are not that nice if they feel they are being attacked - but Rocky gave us a good 15 minutes of entertainment - watching him eat and make little noises (nothing to do with the two bottles of champaigne - absolutely nothing!)
Ciao

That sounds like a wonderful way to spend a few days - old friends are marvellous.

Wow, that looks so wonderful - peaceful scenery, entertaining locals (do the raccoons carry rabies, like the squirrels? We always had to be careful of them when we lived in Colorado). And great times with old friends - what could be better?
