As always, lovely and enchanting. Every Monday I wait anxiously for you to wake and post about your weekend. I live in NC, so by noon I'm popping in and out every hour or so with anticipation! She's up by now, having breakfast, talking to the fur babies, having coffee . . . come on, post Alicia, post! Ha! Thanks for always starting my week with a sip of NW beauty.

Beautiful. Looks so refreshing. Looks like you found a perfect quiet spot far away from everyone else.

Great photos. You do have to take advantage of the very few warm days we have.

What a perfect way to spend a Sunday! Love the picture's as usual. Thanks for sharing. (My hubby & I did yard work, washed windows, painted. Our son is getting married soon, so we are spiffing up the place.) But looking forward to a picnic by a stream soon.
