Anniversary Overnight Get Away

 Thursday, July 14th, was our 13th wedding anniversary.  We have been together for 22 years but married for 13.  We decided to take a road trip to Thompson Falls, MT.  We stayed overnight at a cabin at the Riverfront Motel - we had a great time.  We ate and had a cocktail at Big Eddy's, and a cocktail at Highlead Saloon.  The weather was beautiful and so was the drive.  Later in the evening we hung out at our cabin, enjoyed the pond and fed the ducks.  A wonderful overnight get away!

I was inspired today by Carol Roberts with Grow Me A Story, to select and focus on a color and a word for 2022.  The color I selected from the Pantone website is Radiant Orchid, and the word for 2022 is Radiant - shining or glowing brightly, brilliant.  Carol creates vision boards which I have never done - very intriguing.  It will be interesting to see how this color and word will be a part of 2022 for me.  :)
 

 I have retired!! December 24, 2020 was my last day working for Shoshone County for 22 years.  Wow how fast times goes by........now onto retirement projects like:

She Shed - Crafts  

She Shed...I love this shed!

Gardening.......at least I'm going to give it a try.

Spending time with these two cuties!!!

And other projects like photography, cocktail mixology (it's a thing), genealogy (I really like this), learning to play the keyboard or guitar (I just need to get motivated), read, journal/blog, volunteer, exercise, and do whatever just because I can.   :)
