How I spent my summer vacation...


This the view from our summer home and one of my favorite pictures. I can't take credit for this picture, my father-in-law actually snapped it and it even won first place in a photo contest!


A teacher find of mind says she still asks this question!!! So...

Tennis, Trivia, Tasting and Travel!

Yep, that sums up my summer!

I hadn't played tennis in years, when my daughter INSISTED (very persistently, I may add) that I play with her and her boyfriend. I played my first game on the lakefront in Milwaukee. To my surprise, I was not horrible, and it has become one of my favorite activities (it doesn't feel like exercise, it just feels fun!). So my husband and I played my daughter and her boyfriend two or three times a week.

We also discovered Trivia. Again, at the INSISTENCE of my daughter, that we go to Wrigleyville to play trivia which has turned into us playing at two local restaurants/bars twice a week. We actually are not bad! It is amazing the useless information that hangs somewhere in our brains!

And then there is wine tasting, which has always been a favorite (and requires no skills on our behalf), but is even nicer that our daughter is old enough to join us! Nothing is more relaxing than sipping a glass a wine while overlooking the rolling hills of the vineyards.

And my favorite activity of all is travel We have ventured to some new spots this summer and revisited some favorites!

And I guess I have to add "TRYING" new things to this list as I jet skied for the first time!!! 40 MPH, yeah, now that's fun!!!!!!!!!!!
