I guess if they did I would have to be the one to plan it so maybe I will! Summer is coming in a few months to our mountains here in Colorado- I think a camping trip sounds just the thing!Denisehttp://dinner-with-deniseb.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-24081674143256451642012-02-17T20:49:28.095+00:002012-02-17T20:49:28.095+00:00It sounds as though you were well fed, both spirit...It sounds as though you were well fed, both spiritually and physically!<br />Certainly garden centres in France would never have cafes, the staff are too busy going home for their own lunch between 12 and 2pm!Elizabethdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405703727112759947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-65877859172152471512012-02-17T19:06:53.070+00:002012-02-17T19:06:53.070+00:00It is good to hear your weekend away was so inspir...It is good to hear your weekend away was so inspiring and that relationships were deepened.

We go there for special occasions - that's how good it is.Scriptor Senexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795521284516432520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-65001493937726441352012-02-17T02:44:50.600+00:002012-02-17T02:44:50.600+00:00Your pictures of snow are beautiful.

There's nothing much worse than a hurried weekend where one comes away feeling frazzled. <br /><br />Hope that this is the end of bitterly cold weather and snow.

If you wanted a gift, you went to a gift shop and if you wanted tea etc., you went to a teashop. <br /><br />More and more, businesses are expanding their offerings to attract costumers and stay in business. The same thing is happening here.Annie Jeffrieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415548089882625246noreply@blogger.com
