Happy Friday!

This weekend I wish you a long walk on the beach with someone you love waiting at the end of it.

Happy Friday!

Double Rainbow Over Good Haven House

Last September, after a particularly long thunderstorm, it finally stopped raining. I went to look out the window and this is what greeted me!

A full double rainbow!

I grabbed my camera and ran back and forth, up and down, front yard, back yard, breakfast balcony, and deck like a crazy woman trying to get a shot of the whole thing before it disappeared.........I never did.

Absolutely astonishing and fleetingly beautiful.

See you under the rainbow

The Biggest Pet Yet

Not that it's a contest, (please don't call and ask if you can bring your baby elephant :), but I think we had our biggest pet yet a few weeks ago.

Meet Buddy, a 2 year old English Mastiff, who weighs in at 130 pounds. He will be much bigger the next time he comes as his owner told me English Mastiffs typically reach maturity at 3 years old and his predecessor weighed in at 230lbs! He came with his newly adopted family who rescued him just 2 months before they were to vacation at Good Haven House.

I think he liked his first vacation!

Thank you to Buddy's owners for sending along these great photos of the newest addition to their family.

See you at the beach! -Susan

Happy Friday!

Remember backyard camping and that delicious, scary feeling when you heard bears (the neighbors cat going through the hedge) and witches (the breeze rustling the leaves)? Dive for your sleeping bag and pull it up over your head. Sshhhhh, stop giggling, what's that?!

Hope you have a magical weekend.
