Hello and Welcome to Two Trails One Road!
We just got back from a week in Arizona. We went back to enjoy the heat, a fabulous pool party and sunsets/sunrises outside our door!
17 of us gathered at our friend’s house for the pool party and it was so nice to see everyone and cool off!
Our limes are doing wonderful and will be ready when we get back in the fall.
We loved seeing our backyard… we miss it when we are gone.
Our backyard friends were there to greet us! Mr. Gamble Quail and our backyard Great Horned Owl!
Then in no time at all… we were back on a plane and flying back to Pennsylvania …the sky was beautiful! I just love seeing the clouds!
But no sooner were we back at the LakeHouse… off to Cleveland, Ohio we went … to see friends and family! It’s only a two hour drive from the LakeHouse.
The Cleveland Skyline is always a treat to see!
But to get to Cleveland…
A drive through the country is always enjoyable!
And we noticed in some areas the corn is getting ready to pick.
A fun week was had! We are truly blessed to live in two Paradises!
Back here in Pennsylvania…
Our Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangeas are just now starting to turn pink!
They make beautiful bouquets with added flowers from the gardens!
It was definitely a whirlwind of a week… but we wouldn’t do it any other way! Isn’t that so, sweet man??
Until Next Time~ Nancy
It sounds like a great trip, Nancy. You have a nice set of images here. I really like the hat and pool shot.
Thank you my friend…
Oh and sweet man gets photo credit for that one!
Nancy, I love to follow your travels, always fun and enjoyable photos. You are amazing to keep up two homes and gardens that are so far apart. My vanilla strawberries have been their prettiest this year.
Happy Sunday my friend!
So far apart… but only a 3 1/2 hour plane ride. Lol!
Thank you for coming along for our whirlwind week!
And the hydrangeas are beautiful this year! Glad to hear yours are doing so beautifully!
Great post 🙂
Thank you!
Your hydrangeas are a bit ahead of ours. I like them when they bloom and afterwards dried. Stunning color in your sunset photos.
Thank you Lulu!
I love them dried too. I have started to do the drying process already with some.
Thanks for stopping in!
Gorgeous sunset, and a fabulous backyard.
Thanks so much Pit!
Love your backyard, Nancy! These photos are beautiful. 🙂
Thank you Amy!
Sounds like you had a fun week back in AZ. Love all your flowers and great collection of photos!
Thank you! It was so hot in AZ. The superbloom and grass is all brown. Not pretty at all.
That Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangea looks amazing, Nancy. I might have to see if I can find one here 🙂
They start our white and turn slightly pink… I love them too!
Nice 🙂
Lovely post..I have enjoyed your quick travels..You are one busy lady. Your vanilla strawberry is ahead of mine also, even though I just live within an hour away from you. I believe its because we live closer to the BIG LAKE! Anyway, love all of the great pics. Beautiful like you.
Aren’t you the sweetest! I miss you and we better get together next week!
Lovely pictures! I love Cleveland and will be visiting there very soon again. There is so much to do and living only an hour away makes it convenient.
Cleveland has a fond place in my heart. And you are correct… so much to see and do there!
Thank you for the visit my friend!
Beautiful photos Nancy! How often to you go back to check on things in Arizona when you are in PA? And vice versa? It is so wonderful to have 2 paradises, but I know it’s a lot of work…Your birds are quite something!!! Fun travels, you are having a busy summer!

We have people staying at both so it’s a lot easier. It’s really not hard. But thank you for thinking of us! We love it and are so grateful and blessed. 😊
Nancy, what a delight to read this post! You are busy, but busy in a wonderful way. And oh, those hydrangeas! Love them, and thank you for taking us with you via your photos. xo Lidy
Thank you so much for stopping by for a visit. I sure hope you stop by again as I am always posting about our busy happenings, travels and doings. And just like you said… it’s busy in a wonderful way. 😊
I have never seen a bird like that!
CLEVELAND!!! Thanks for showcasing the city so beautifully 🙂
Welcome to the Southwest!
And yes we both love our Cleveland! Thank you for the love!
A lovely, blessed whirlwind, Nancy. 🙂

I think I got a bit dizzy just reading this let alone being in the midst of your whirlwind! Great photos and I loved seeing the video of your feathered friend. 🙂
Dizzy…! Well I hope you recovered! Lol!
Thanks for the love!
