Weekends away offer many gifts.

Time with friends and the chance to fill up with the good things in life.

Loud laughter. Quiet Conversations.  New card games.  Old music.  Much wine. Not enough dancing.

Nourished by meals prepared together and shared around a large family table.

Long walks and talks, and peaceful moments at the river’s edge.

Early morning photography sessions and late evening songs around the campfire.

And arriving home rejuventated, with major life decisions made.

Gifts indeed.
