Yes, it is still sunny today (Monday) and I am off for a walk.<br /><br />Bethany--If you decide to come out for your brother's wedding, let's try and meet each other. I can drive up to Tahoe or you are welcome to come and stay here with me for awhile too. I, too, am a home-body but I enjoy getting out occasionally. But, like you, home is my preference. I don't feel the need to go very far because I like where I live. <br /><br />Maggie--Yes, the girls were born and raised here and only moved away briefly to attend college but then after they got married they decided they didn't want the city life any longer and moved only about 35 min. from us in a rural setting. They love planting their yards, just like I did. They built on raw land like we did and had to do everything from scratch. It gives you a sense of satisfaction though. The no electricity part was easy really. It was the no phone part that I didn't like in case of emergencies especially when the girls were little. Yes, the stars are amazing here at night. No city lights to obstruct them and when we sit out in the spa, you can look up in the sky and get lost. Yes, I'd say it WAS a hippie life-style. While we were building, we lived in a 30 foot school bus!!! I hope that doesn't make everyone go "Ewwwwww!"Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13046623774704584939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14030528845321746.post-43305926102152225792010-03-21T14:23:29.917-07:002010-03-21T14:23:29.917-07:00cheers to sunny lifetimes...could not help but smi...cheers to sunny lifetimes...could not help but smile. clear skies...enjoy it.Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14030528845321746.post-30979014913209139892010-03-21T08:30:33.895-07:002010-03-21T08:30:33.895-07:00Wow Teri, love this post. How beautiful it is ther...Wow Teri, love this post. How beautiful it is there, you're right! I love the story of your house and home. I'm in awe of you. Fantastic stuff. The bag car phone! <br />When my brother sent me photos of Lake Tahoe where his wedding will be in September, I started crying because it is so beautiful and I have never been anywhere like that. I've missed out on so much beauty, being such a home body.Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03510823788662848522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14030528845321746.post-3186944929408456962010-03-20T22:08:11.882-07:002010-03-20T22:08:11.882-07:00First off I must thank you for you really sweet co...First off I must thank you for you really sweet comment over at my blog. It really touched me. And by the view in the photo above I wish I did live closer to you, along with a wonderful friendship there would be the bonus of such breathtaking views. Wow!<br />It sort of sounds like the hippie life...one I used to wish for. Not sure about the no electric part of that. But then again I bet the stars at night are amazing.<br />I was wondering if your kids stayed out there with you or moved to the city?<br />Thanks for sharing this sunny Saturday...you are truly blessed. And I am grateful to be able to get to know you.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749464659476217501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14030528845321746.post-91185274166605025582010-03-20T19:37:15.232-07:002010-03-20T19:37:15.232-07:00It sounds as though you do live in the ideal place...It sounds as though you do live in the ideal place; peaceful but with a mix of places within easy reach. We have a bit further to travel; Melbourne being about two hours away and a decent beach three hours. <br /><br />When we first moved up here, I joined a craft group and asked the ladies if they still appreciated and took in the beauty of the area. I must say that when we've been away for a week or two, coming home I take it all in; we turn into our road and I look at our beautiful valley anew.alaine@éclectiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367208674281749257noreply@blogger.com
