Quabbin Reservoir and Ware River

When we went to Massachusetts to visit my in-laws and they took us to the Quabbin. I could have stayed on the boat all day just to enjoy the sounds of nature and to watch the Loons.

Boston-MA

This was my first time in Boston and I loved it!! The kids loved it too! I can't wait to go back... maybe even look into living there.

Sights from Boston:

Sunny day in San Angel- TX

Our First day back the U.S. ! Clear sky, fresh air and hot weather.

Dim Dim

Heading Back to the U.S.

It is time for us to head back to the states!!! Oh, how I need a taste of the states...where I can go shopping at Wal-mart, drive long distances, and best of all see our family/friends.

The best thing about living outside of the United States is the coming back to it. Everytime I came back to the U.S. I apperciate it a little more than I did the last time.

"Oh, it's home again and home again, America for me!

I want a ship that's westward bound to plough the rolling sea

To the blessed land of Room Enough beyond the ocean bars,

Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag is full of stars."

Today at the beach...

I took my daughter and her friends to the the beach on a lovely sunday afternoon. Well...not going to post photos of them but this is what we saw today. The girl had a great time picking up sea shell (very small of course) and playing the sand. The beach is off of Stanley market.
