Out of practice

Larry and I are dusting off our suitcases (not sure they qualify as luggage) and planning our first trip in eleven years! We had been fantasizing about visiting Kauai, but we're starting a little closer to home.
Part of the reason we never go anywhere is pictured above. We love to swim in our own backyard, even though it takes 300 laps to swim a mile. LOL.

Our destination of Saugatuck, Michigan comes with a delightful bonus. We will be driving near our blog friend Daisy's hometown, and finally get to meet this charming gal!

What do you think I should pack? Swimsuit - check. Books - check. Knitting - check. Sewing project - check. Chocolate - check. Oh, do you think I should take a few changes of clothes and a toothbrush? Okay.

Oh don't worry about the clothes - if you've got books, knitting and sewing you'll be fine! Lucy x

Hurray! I can't wait, Diana. I'm looking forward to meeting you. :)
That pool looks very inviting. I can understand why it keeps you close to home. I hope you have a great trip.

And peppermints for the car...what d'you need clothes for? They just make packing a chore!! I've been thinking of your impending trip and meant to ask when it was happening...now, don't go forgetting your cases by the front door, like some other people we could mention!!!
Have a lovely time!
