Weekend Hide-away

So Thursday night came around and Dave and I decided we had had a tough week already. I was slightly insistent that we go away for the weekend and turn off the phones and hide from the world for a while. On Friday, Dave made a phone call to a client of his who has a cabin just across the border- about 30 minutes north. She said we were welcome to the house and all that was in it- I could hardly wait for that 3:00 bell to ring!!! We loaded up the coolers, the dog, and an overnight bag...okay, maybe 6...and off we went. Here is the lovely home we spent Friday and Saturday night in.



Notice the lack of neighbors- we saw no one for 36 hours! We had this private beach a short walk down the drive from us.



The "cabin" as the owner called it- was to us anything but (lets just say we packed our own toilet paper, just in case). We were pleasantly surprised to walk into a newly constructed, well done home.




We napped out on this porch Saturday morning during a rain storm...


Grace turned out to be quite the little water dog.




We kayaked a bit on Saturday, although I didn't take a camera with us. How did we get the kayaks from the house down to the river...?


I spent some hours reading...



Dave spent some time painting...



...and the evenings were spent watching the campfire.



We're both feeling relazed, refreshed, and ready to start a new week.
