A few days ago one of our kids took us on a trip up a mountainside. There I got to see a waterfall, snow, my beloved Aspen trees, a lake and even some deer! It was awesome 😊<br />Glad you had a safe and enjoyable trip.

I love coming by to visit with you, sweet friend. So thankful you had a wonderful trip away. That is so amazing how the weather changes so quickly in such a short distance! I think it is a great idea to keep an afghan in each vehicle. It is always a good idea to be prepared. The sweater you are making is just beautiful! I hope your pain is much better now and trust you are having a lovely day!

That looks like a lot of snow. Your sweater is looking great. I can't believe all the detail and intricate design aspects you're putting in, such a talented knitter. Your visit with the kids sounds wonderful. You've shown that hotel before and it really sounds like an amazing place to stay. So glad you all had a good time together. I hope you're having a good week so far!Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-49905334705331683702017-04-08T19:51:24.478-05:002017-04-08T19:51:24.478-05:00Your sweater is so nice.

I knit a sweater for 4-H years ago that had cable front, back and sleeves. Wish I could still wear it. I thankful you and Dennis had a good visit with your son and grandchildren. Nice hotel too. I aim to please God, not mankind. But I tend to be nice to everyone I meet to make them happy too. When we step out and help people in their need, it's in Jesus name that we do it. Interesting fact about the rivers. I'm not sure I knew that. I do now!!! ;'} Have a blessed Sunday and hope you are feeling better!

Thank you so much for the pictures as with my fear of heights I will probably never make it out West and I love mountains...go figure!?!<br />That hotel looks really nice and I like the coffee and tea 24 hours and warm chocolate chip cookies! <br />I try to always ask myself "what would Jesus do" and I know but it is not always easy! I love your Easter tree and decorations and also your granny square blanket on the back of the sofa! Have a great weekend. So sorry about the flooding at the lake....I hope the damage is minimal to those homes.

I was hoping there was one of those hotels in IN or MI! Your sweater will end up so nice and your patience will pay off. Lovely little chery flowers that you crocheted. All that flooding must be scary. I am glad that your trailer is safe.

Yay for the progress on your sweater! [you are still speedy to me :) ] Thanks for the recommendation about the motel...I will definitely look to see if we can stay in one this summer. The whole idea of being in the world but not of the world keeps me on my spiritual toes trying to understand God's view of that, and how I can comply. I appreciate your sharing your contemplation about whom you a living to please. Living lovingly is forever a challenge to me, but oh how I want to please Him! I'm so glad you had a good visit with some of your family, and I am asking the Lord to continue to bless you and yours.

I'm really happy that you got to spend time with your son and grandkids.. good for you all to make it happen. Looks like a really fun place for kids to stay. I bet you're glad your trailer is on high ground! That's one thing about living here in Corbett, we're 700 feet above the Columbia River so don't have to ever worry about being flooded. Have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
