Change of Scene!

Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

We were away at our beloved Pasley and returned yesterday late afternoon. Eventhough it was a wonderful R & R, we were a tid exhausted, when we came face to face with 'reality' again! Methinks, I may have had a bit too much of sun; and after we unpacked, watered our bittid garden, I went for a tidbit nap, waking up some 3 hours later! Perhaps, because I was awake most of the night before; to make sure we were up in time to clean everything up, pack up, and then catch the boat ride, then the ferry. There is no electricity on the bittidz island; and it is a very rustic and tidbitz 'Bohemian' spot. To top if off, earlier today I wished someone 'Have a good weekend'. LOL! Alan and I are pretty laid back; and can genuinely appreciate a 'Bohemian' style of life. And inasmuch as it is 'Canada Day'; I guess it is still like a 'weekend'.

One of nature's simple creations, we immensely enjoyed were the 'Foxglove' flowers. Took pictures of them with our digital camera (still have to figure out how to properly utilize the camera and to correctly put the photos on our computer / blog). The above photo image shows these beautiful mauve / pink and white flowers, sprouting up in wild abundant 'clumps' or 'fields'. Very majestic!

Our 'pup' Blue, is becoming more familiar with the ocean; as he was pursuing sticks and logs, wading / trotting into the water chest high. In the next little bit, he will be swimming; and I understand that 'Blue Heelers' are natural swimmers. Blue is very coordinated, athletic, and agile; so it is extra great to observe his playful gain of confidence in his tid oceanfront surroundings.

We had 'exquisite' tasty meals; amazing what you can assemble together, from 'whatever there is!' The peaceful sound of gentle rolling waves, the constant tides, the spectacular sunsets, millions of stars, the moon shining on the water etc! Enjoyed the mornings, relaxing on the deck, drinking in the sea air with a cup of coffee, and just 'chilling out' for a bit! In a tid, it was a very much appreciated change of scene.


Tidbit - We are thankful for our Blessings; and we 'Praise Him in ALL Things' - always!

Bittid - 'A Change of scene is as good as a rest'; so they say.

Also, Happy Canada Day to all those who celebrate this National Holiday! Wrote a post last year (Happy Canada Day Weekend, July 2nd, if you wish to refer to it); and sadly Alan's Mum passed away in February /08.

We were glad though, that his Mum enjoyed Pasley twice, the second time with her husband in the new Panabode. As a bit of tid, the shower is now installed in the Panabode; and we appreciated a hot shower this past weekend! What a tid of a bit treat!

Mentioned in an earlier blog re: the Court Date, held June 19/08 re: the Judge's Rendering; however, we are hopeful that Alan will be 'allowed' to see his Dad, without any further restraints / restrictions on enjoying an ongoing relationship with his Dad. It would be magnificent too, IF the siblings could enjoy Pasley as a retreat / respite, as this would be a genuine 'healing' for the future. Also, Alan's Dad would LOVE to be up there in the summers, watching the unencumbered eagles, the Blue Heron, the Canada Geese, the ducks, the deer, the seals; and other thriving wild life. The sibling(s) could come up with their Dad; and a fine time would be had by us all!

God Bless.
