Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
After a Week of Cruising
After a week of smooth sailing down the West Coast under summery blue skies and sunshine – lazy days spent at sea and excursions at ports of call – we returned to beautiful, cold and damp, Seattle.
I’m still getting my land legs back and settling in. Unpacking luggage. And stories. And hundreds of photos I was compelled to take. I look forward to sharing them with you in the coming days.
I’m also ready to embrace the fact that summer is really over – a chill is in the air, leaves are changing color, and salmon are running on the Cedar River – fall is here to stay and winter follows close behind.
The cats are adjusting too – confused and a bit agitated about our absence – they require more love and attention which I am happy to give.
The cruise was wonderful, even better than I expected. Still, it’s great to be home. 🙂

Glad to hear that you had a lovely cruise. I will be eagerly anticipating your photos. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks Pete! It was a fun and relaxing time; and we really did have the best weather and smooth sailing! 🙂
At least you didn’t return to ice on your car and deep snow as we did once when we cruised in the Caribbean in January! I am glad your trip was so fun and look forward to photos.
Thank you. We had a great time, and only returned to cold and damp. No snow for awhile hopefully. 😊
It looks like Benji is happy to have you home! 😊
Yes, he and Tiger are both happy we returned and can’t get enough attention. 😻
