Road trip
We went on a road trip at the weekend. It doesn't happen often but I don't get to visit my big sister often and miss her very much, especially since Mum died. Not only do I love her but She is my link to the past, shared memories and also a source of information as she can remember more than me and is the holder of family stories.
My sister lives in a beautiful place along the coastline from the Gower penisular in Wales, well worth a visit to blow away the cobwebs! I have put up a couple of photos of the views she can take in just by walking a short distance along her road! The other photo is of Lizzie, her beautiful tabby cat. 16 years ago Lizzie was one of 5 kittens born to Daisy, my beautiful tortie girl. We kept her sister Holly, a tortie kitten, she lived for 15 happy years but Lizzie is still going strong, although she now has meds for high blood pressure.
I am very lucky as my sister is on the same wavelength. I took her a sack of locally grown potatoes, a jar of home made mincemeat, a carrier bag of bramley apples and some jonagold eating apples. She not only supplied a lovely roast dinner for us but sent us back with several home made preserves and a box of card making supplies. It is so good to have a member of the family understand where you are coming from!
