I had such a wonderful weekend with my friend Judy, that I didn't want it to end.
I don't think that I have ever been to home more cozy and inviting than Judy's House.
Judy and I sipped champagne in our pajamas and talked the nights away.
We visited interesting shops, and enjoyed wonderful meals in her lovely home.
Then to top off the trip, Judy and Ralph took me to a shrimp fest at Ralphs brother's home. Every detail in that home is beautiful.
Here is Judy engaged in conversation with some of her guests.
The people in that room were delightful and we all had such a great time. There were twenty-two guests for a sit down shrimp feast.
Richard's home is spectacular. 
The company was wonderful, and the shrimp tasted incredible. 
Every corner of Judy's home holds enchanting vignettes. Her life is filled with wonderful friends and family reflected in her busy life.
As I drove down the driveway and waved goodbye, I thought about how much I adore Judy. 
I thought about all the wonderful memories reflected in over twenty-something years and how much I am thankful for our friendship. I came back with a stash of beautiful memories to add to my memorized adventures with Judy. 
Thank you Judy for a wonderful visit. I can't wait to visit again.
Since Judy is one of those people who make the best of everyday, living by her own philosophy, I had to have Steve Tyrel serenade this post singing Give Me The Simple Life.
Beautiful home. I love shrimp. Friends are so great!

What a wonderful weekend! There's nothing like spending time with a special friend. The shrimp sound fantastic!
Friendship is one of the best gifts that life has to offer. Judy's home does look deliciously cozy and what a great view through those windows. It must've been wonderful to get away. Next time, you'll be the hostess!
