Thanks again, Kevin R – the service has been lovely
As I rather expected, our last day has so far been our best day. Seems like right as we’re getting a serious groove going is when it’s about time to leave. Not that most of our trips haven’t been awesome from the start, but these rougher trips frequently seem to take a few days to iron out.
As it is, the house has been vacuumed and scrubbed, most of our stuff is out in the car, and I’m just waiting for the bedding and dishes to finish drying so I can make the bed and restock the cupboards. Then we are off. Of course, with the house sparkling clean Nico has been struck with undeniable desire to play with the ‘moon sand’ that Grandma keeps for him here. “Turn your living room into a sandbox, instantly!” Oh well, there’s nothing else to do while we wait and that’s what vacuums are for.
I wonder if this will be our last trip here. This really has been a nice little getaway, especially considering all of the Mommy and Nico trips that it has enabled. It’s harder to justify the week long trips without Ryan if we’re going to have to pay for hotel. We have that New Years Eve visit planned, but if the house sells before then I won’t expect them honor our “reservation”.
Oh well. Time to check on the laundry and maybe take in a few quiet moments watching the boats come in.
turn your living room into a sandbox… sounds like the in-laws hate you, heh.
maybe next year they’ll buy him drums.
well, they keep it at their beach house, so they must hate themselves. although, I did clean it up.
