Well, that break went on much longer than I'd planned. I went on vacation last week, so I decided to wait until after vacation to return. It's so good to be back! I can't wait to come around and visit all your blogs and see what I've been missing!
I'll leave you with a few pictures from our vacation to California.
We visited San Francisco, Napa, and Lake Tahoe. The first two photos are from Lake Tahoe, the third is a view of Alcatraz in San Francisco.
So what have you all been up? Did anyone else take a vacation this summer? Where did you go?
Yay for you having a great vacation! I'm so glad you are back though...You were missed (a lot).
ReplyDeleteWhere were you in CA? Lovely pictures?
Beautiful pics. I went back to RI for two weeks, but alas no pictures. Welcome home.
ReplyDeleteOoh! The pictures are gorgeous! I hope your vacation (the real one and the bloggy one) have been relaxing and helpful!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Your holiday photos look amazing. What part of California did you visit!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful country!
ReplyDeleteLovely piccies!
It lloks like you might have been up the dd mountain too!
WELCOME BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!! Yayyayayayyayay!! The blogworld is a brighter sunnier place again!!!
ReplyDeleteAwwww I had a staycation!!! Loved it!! Did nothing, ate lots, shopped a bit and plenty of days out!!
California looks so lovely - glad you had a great time! Take care

R & R in beautiful places with people you love is THE BEST. Did you discover any cool coffee houses in San Francisco? p.s. Welcome back.
ReplyDeleteHooray, you're back! Looks like you sure had one heck of a good time!
ReplyDeleteGoogle's doing that to me too. It's driving me crazy, but if I backspace I can leave a comment after that. Weird.
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures! So beautiful.
Great pics! Glad you had a great vacation and welcome back to Blogland. We did some local weekend stays but that's about it. There's enough to do in our area to keep us happy, but it would be nice to do an extended stay out of state.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics! Makes me homesick. I'm a Bay Area girl! I was out there this summer and will go back again in October. And we used to camp in Tahoe every summer when I was a kid... ah, good times.
ReplyDeleteLovely pics! I haven't been to the west coast since I was a toddler and my grandma lived in Anaheim.
ReplyDeleteWe went to the Finger Lakes in New York and an amusement park in northern PA. Wish we could have been away longer than a week...
It looks like you had a great time, Susan! It's good to see you. :-)
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Susan! Did you take a tour of Alcatraz?
ReplyDeleteHi, Susan! Welcome back! I was just wondering when you were going to be back to blogging!
ReplyDeleteI love photographs. Looks like some great travels. I've been to Cali once and it was Lake Tahoe. I want to explore more of it!
Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteYou're making me miss home! I was born and raised in Sacramento. Funny, I knew that was Tahoe right away. I hope you had a good time!
Love the pictures!! We didn't go anywhere. :(
ReplyDelete(But we live in a beach town, so we don't really want to leave in the summer) LOL
How beautiful! Glad you had a great break, and thanks for sharing the lovely picts!
ReplyDeleteWelcome Back
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! Vacations are great, but they can be super exhausting too. :) Looks like you had a good time, though!
ReplyDeleteSan Francisco looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had an excellent time on your break. The pics look great.
Wow -- beautiful pictures!
ReplyDeleteMy family went to California over spring break, although not to the same places. We went to Hollywood and Catalina. What a beautiful state it is! I hope to go back some day and see some of the places you visited!
hi miss susan! im soooo happy to see you and im happy you had a good fun summer. i love all those pics. i hope you could post more of them some time. for sure you been missed lots.
ReplyDelete...hugs from lenny
Yes, lovely pictures. California is on my 'bucket list' for places I still need to see! Our holidays were in British Columbia; not too far from home.
ReplyDeleteGlorious pictures!
ReplyDeleteWe went to Cornwall for a short break, which was lovely, but otherwise I haven't been anywhere else.
Never been to California. Would love to though.
lovely pics, Suzy!
ReplyDeleteNice to see your smiling face. :)
ReplyDeleteI grew up in the Bay Area and was sent to summer camp every year in Tahoe...so those pictures are very familiar. I can almost smell the air from those pictures.
We went to Disney (and HP world) for 2 weeks and spent a couple long weekends at the shore. Might even go again this weekend...
Have a lovely weekend, Susan. :)
Huggles,
Lola
That first picture is really vivid. Love the colours and the scene itself. Hope you're well rested.
ReplyDeleteOh, gorgeous photos, Susan! Welcome back! It's a bit disorienting to come back from a long break, no? It was hard for me to return to work...
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI went to ALA in New Orleans and SCBWI in LA, so both were work related. It was nice to be out of town, though.
Have a wonderful weekend and welcome back to blogging.
What beautiful pictures! I'm glad you had a lovely vacation. Wasn't Alcatraz amazing? I remember doing that tour when I was a little girl. It gave me chills!
ReplyDeleteI signed with an agent a couple weeks ago, so that's what I've been up to-- editing, editing, editing ... getting ready for submissions. Crazy and fun all at once. I'm still slightly floored that it actually happened!
Welcome back ... I was just wondering about you today before I saw your post: "I wonder what Susan is up to?" :)
Amy
Welcome back! Ahhh, San Francisco, being nicely foggy for you I see. I've never been to Tahoe, but I've been to Napa many times. Beautiful country. Glad you had a nice time.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures, thanks for sharing! Glad you had a lovely vacation! I've heard about Lake Tahoe, it looks so beautiful in your pictures.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! Welcome back! I'll be in SF this October. Can't wait. I love that place :)
ReplyDeleteYay! Welcome back - we missed you! Your pics look lovely. I'm sure you had a fantastic vacation.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed my state. You were only an hour from my house when you snapped Alcatraz! How about that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping in at the Write Game to say hi. I'm dying to know what lamb cake is, btw!
Love the pictures! My in-laws live only a couple hours from Tahoe and all the extended family lives in The Bay area, so my favorite parts of visiting them are the trips to those two places. :o) (Notice I didn't say seeing them. lol)
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! :) What beautiful pictures! I've always wanted to go to San Francisco. Hoping to make it out there sometime in the next few years.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures! Glad you had a great time! I've been back to visit friends and relatives in Malaysia, got married, and had a honeymoon. :) Only been back a month, but I feel like I need another holiday again!
