Easter Weekend

It has been a beautiful Easter weekend. On Friday, we took the parents for lunch. They said it was a nice time. It's hard to tell because my mother-in-law thinks that Pop is her brother and that I am her husband. Pop is quiet and not very conversational. But there were cards and flowers and good food.

Yesterday, we met up with a number of other boats for the day. It was nice to hang out with some fellow sailors and have a few hours to spend having good food on the host boat.

Today is Easter, and we are anchored in an inlet near the beach of a beautiful undeveloped island. This is a place of great peace with the wind and surf the only sounds. The trails wind among a maritime forest of live oaks, cedar, and palmetto. Here are a few photos from our Easter weekend:

I hope that you are enjoying the day and all that it means to you.

  3. Such a pretty weekend. We were chilly up here at the top of the Chesapeake Bay. I hope it was a bit warmer for you down south. He is risen. :)

  4. We live in the same geographical area, with oh, maybe a few degrees difference.
    Been a good day here, too, Syd.
    But you remind me of how much I need to get to the water.

  5. What a lovely, lovely place for such a holiday - as well as the peace that was surrounding you. Love the 'Sojourner' tee-shirt, too!

  7. Nice to have the chance to be able to get away from the crowds.
    Love to have solitude with nature

  8. That's so thoughtful of you and C to include her parents in festivities even when they are so confused. It probably means more to them than they can express.
    Your Easter weekend seems like a dream of how we'd all love it to be.

  13. Your doggie looks so much like my son's baby girl who we lost last summer. I remember that you and I had shared aging yellow labs. I'm so glad that you have one of your girl's pups. She looks like a love.
