It’s been a minute. I’m glad to be here, and I am so happy to check in with everyone. How are all of you?

Has Autumn treated you well?

The last time we chatted, we had arrived back in Arizona to our winter home. After just a week in AZ, we flew to San Francisco, where we boarded a cruise ship. That evening, we cruised under the Golden Gate Bridge. What an exhilarating experience! (Later, I learned we would cruise under several more bridges!) Our cruise ship then headed for the Gulf Coast of Mexico, Central America, and the Panama Canal.

Panama City. It was much bigger then what I expected!

It has been a bit of a whirlwind for me. I was in need of a break, and our relaxing cruise came at the perfect time!

I have so much to share with you and will in several future posts.

However, right now, I’m happy to be back here writing again, and I look forward to checking in with all of you. I have missed so much. I can’t wait to see what you have been up to.

Thanksgiving Celebration

We Americans are preparing for a beautiful Thanksgiving with family and friends. It’s a time for us to gather and celebrate our Thankfulness and to share gratitude. How are your preparations going for the big feast? It’s a busy week for many; therefore, I do not want to keep you from your festivities. I plan to share more about the cruise when I return next week.

Just one thing, though… there were many times when we were out on deck viewing the coasts of the many countries we visited. Many times, we saw glorious sunsets. It was right then that I wished I could have captured the views, the smell of sea salt, the soft breezes, and my beautiful thoughts while standing hand in hand with the one I love and placed it all in a bottle. So when I got home I could open that bottle whenever I needed it most! My bottle is filled with gratefulness and thankfulness! Yet, that bottle is my heart! I wish for you to do the same. Fill your heart so it is overflowing with gratitude and appreciation.

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends!

Enjoy time with your family and count your blessings.

    1. I’m so glad you are better! We missed you and Rob so much. What a lovely place Janet found. Is Cave Creek closer for you? It was so good to have Nancy back again.

  9. Nancy, you have been to so many places in the world. We talked so much about other things, we didn’t even hear about your cruise. You could have regaled us the whole time! That said, I’m just grateful we had some time together. Happy Thanksgiving, my friend. πŸ™‚ hugs xxxx
