A sunny place

Living in New England, we're blessed to have a sunny getaway to run to when the winter starts wearing on our nerves. We made it to Naples, Florida for our yearly week long winter break. I have great memories of this place and feel very blessed to be able to retreat here. It really helps to break up our llloooonnnngggg winter and fill our bodies and souls with some much needed sunshine. There is so much to do here, but most of the time, we do the same simple things.

             Dig for treasures.....







Slow down











check out some local beauties






make new discoveries



read books




Eat some great food




and of course, knit.




But most importantly, away from the bustle of our everyday life,
we spend our time unhurried, peaceful and together - just the way a vacation should be.....
