Let the weekend begin

The funeral was last night. Ugh. 'nough said.

Today is my Friday. We leave for Sugar Pine Cottage in the Black Forest tomorrow morning. Our cabin is right along the Clarion River in Pennsylvania. We found this out of the way place while driving home from a visit with cute bf's family up near Lake Erie. We took the scenic route home and when we drove through Black Forest and saw the tiny cabins nestled in trees we looked at each other and said, "We need to come back here." And so we are.

The cabins are lovely, wooden, and near so much yet still secluded. We have planned a sunrise hike to Fire Tower, horseback riding through the mountains, and weather permitting a canoe trip along the river followed by a picnic on the banks.

There's no tv. There' s no cell phone service. No internet. I'm thrilled. I need a technology fast.

In the meantime, I work today, have a million loose ends to tie up, and need a good night's sleep. A five hour drive awaits us.

How lucky am I though? A weekend with the one I love, and a new place to explore. I'm grateful.

Enjoy your weekend!!!
