SPENDING TIME TOGETHER

It has been awhile since I posted. We just got back from a relaxing time in New England. We stayed at this Inn, in Meridith New Hampshire. It is a little town on a lake in the mountains.


Here is the lake, and some mountains in the distance.


This is a little about the waterfall that ran along side of the Inn.



One of my highlights of the week was this river that ran through the mountains, This is so soothing and peaceful. It must be amazing in the fall.



The water was rushing through and over the big rocks, the sun was shining and there was picnic tables all around...



Hubby taking in all the beauty..




This is what it was like once we got to the bottom of the mountain and the waterfall..How much fun they had. People were sliding down the rocks into the water at this spot. We went out on the rocks and watched.. It was such a relaxing time, and I couldn't get over all the beauty


We are now in Conway New Hampshire. And decided to take this train ride. Mike heading on while I waited for friends of ours to get on.



Here we are on the train, we took the one hour ride and that was good enough for Carla and I. See not only does a train move forward it also rocks side to side...Wonderful for those of us that have motion sickness...But it was a nice ride, you can't go wrong with good friends.



Here is another picture, we are still in the mountains


But now we went from mountains to ocean. We are in Portland Maine, Here is Mike and friends of ours checking out which yacht they want to purchase. The 5 million dollar one is good enough for me. lol.


We are going to dinner here on a floating Yacht, at Dimillo's. That is the restaurant over my shoulder. Let me tell you this was fabulous. I had Filet with crab and asparagus with a sauce and it was scrumptious...I ordered and bloody Mary and it had the biggest shrimp I have ever seen on the side it looked like a lobster tail...and it was delish...all four of us had some of it. But the drink wasn't good it tasted like cocktail sauce..What a wonderful nice relaxing 3 hour dinner we had. Seated at the windows watching Yachts come and go.


Now we are in Boston Mass. more Yachts to dream about..well for the guys that is. we are out on the boardwalk.



The sail boats were nice and so was the weather all week. Not a lot of humidity and temps upper 70's low 80's just perfect.



We are now eating at Anthony's Pier 4. It is also on a ship. But this one reminds you of back in the 30's 40's. the way the servers are dressed and all the white linens..very nice. And it is also on the ocean. Here Mike is enjoying some fresh Oysters...Nope no way I did not ask for one bite of those baby's..


This is Mike and I at the Boston Logan airport, heading back home at 8 am...He was telling me if I put my camera up and took one more picture of us he was going to take it from me. Well if you know me at all....as you can see I had to take one more picture...heheheh....
We were so blessed on this trip from the time we left till the time we got home. First was on our flight there, we got moved to exit row seats...savings of 40.oo and a lot of leg room. Then when we went to get our rental the car they had for us wasn't there, so they up graded us and we got a brand new car for same price. this was also a God thing, not only that when we left the hotel to go get the car we were going to have to go to airport on hotel shuttle then get hertz shuttle over to hertz....but when the driver said where to I said hertz.....Mike said airport...Then Mike said honey they don't go to hertz....Well guess what..he did...he dropped us right off at the door of the Hertz rental...another God thing. When we went to check in Sunday to come home there was no seats available they over booked...Only seat was first class and two exit row....Yep we got the exit row again.. that is another 40.00 savings and more room.. I could go on and on how the Lord made ways open to us all week. It was awesome..We thank you so much Lord for your watching over us and the many blessings above and beyond what we deserve.
Thanks for the wonderful week Honey. I really had a wonderful time, it was also nice to be with John and Carla. So thankful for these times we get to share.
Now looking forward to our trip in Cabo in late fall.
