We only spent a few hours there when we visited many years ago and I would love to go back nd see if it has changed or not.<br />I hadn't heard about the fires, I do hope that no lives have been lost since you wrote this post.<br />Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778709902157945708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-6824600565390993092017-07-23T14:45:36.360-07:002017-07-23T14:45:36.360-07:00Great photos, Lorrie.

What a strange weather also this year! We have had cold weather for months.

I am always astonished to think of you actually living in such an idyllic place. It makes me curious to know whether you are from there originally or if not why you located there? If I remember correctly your parents live further inland, right? You go through mountains to visit them? To live where people splurge to vacation seems amazing but then maybe you take it for granted the way we take Nashville for granted, even though the world comes a visiting here too.<br />Dewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-37805258984032540952017-07-22T10:39:10.530-07:002017-07-22T10:39:10.530-07:00Such a lovely post, and your photographs are so go...Such a lovely post, and your photographs are so good to look at.<br />I think the pitcher of mint-raspberry water looks so pretty and I'm sure tasted delicious. <br />What a beautiful hydrangea.<br /><br />All the best JanLowcarb team memberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961199165290289611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-38080735104244417712017-07-22T10:21:31.718-07:002017-07-22T10:21:31.718-07:00Lorrie, your summer just sound so lovely.
