Heading to Quebec…

We are headed to Quebec for vacation!  This will be Victory’s first vacation!  We are looking forward to our time away together!  Our last three vacations were spent with our beloved Biscuit in Nova Scotia (two times) and Vermont.  We had a wonderful time in Nova Scotia, but we decided to do something different with our little Victory this year!

I have previously blogged during our vacations and trips.  However, I have made the decision to disconnect during our vacation this summer.  So I’ll be back to the blog in approximately three weeks, in mid September, and I will share our vacation adventures at that time!  I look forward to rest, relaxing, reading good books, our adventures together, and spending quality time together!

Meanwhile, if you are in a blog-reading mood, you are warmly invited to check out the archives — a link to the archives is on the right side of the blog!

Have a wonderful couple of weeks!

P.S. While we are away on vacation, I do plan to post images/videos regularly while we are on vacation via Instagram (our Instagram feed is also shown on the right side of the blog!)

“What we want out of a vacation changes as we age.  It changes from vacation to vacation.  There was a time when it was all about culture for me.  My idea of a real break was to stay in museums until my legs ached and then go stand in line to get tickets for an opera or a play.  Later I became a disciple of relaxation and looked for words like beach and massage when making my plans.  I found those little paper umbrellas that balanced on the side of rum drinks to be deeply charming then.  Now I strive for transcendent invisibility and the chance to accomplish the things I can’t get done at home.  But as I pack up my room at the Hotel Bel-Air, I think the best vacation is the one that relieves me of my own life for a while and then makes me long for it again.”  -Ann Patchett, “Do Not Disturb, in This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage.
