See Ya Later Old Friend

This is a picture of my pool. We closed it today before we leave to go on vacation. There isn't much time left this summer for swimming anyway. It was like saying goodbye to an old friend. More like "see you later"! That pool is why I wanted to buy this house! Oh well! Life goes on... Speaking of life going on. I also gave Chewy, our chihuahua, a bath today so that he will be clean for his first plane ride. I haven't flown in years. To be honest...I'm a little nervous about the whole thing. It's better than the alternative of driving for 2 days. We did that 2 years ago.

This is a picture of Chewy. He is 12 years old and we have had him since he was a pup. He is spoiled rotten I might add. He's a good boy though. In preparation for packing for vacation today, I came across some of my old purses that I made years ago. They are still cute! Ha Ha! I'm going to miss sewing while on vacation. But I'm sure my new grandson, Ethan, is going to keep me pretty busy! We will do some sight-seeing around San Francisco and Sacramento. We would like to see some of those big Sequoia's. And maybe Old Faithful. We might check out a museum in Sacramento. There will be plenty of things to choose from. Of course they all have to be "newborn friendly". I will still be blogging while on vacation, you are sure to hear about our adventures and see pictures.

This is my grandson, Ethan. Isn't he beautiful! He has a full head of dark hair under that little cap. I can't wait to see him tomorrow!
