So this past weekend a few of us spent the weekend at Sandy's mountain home in Little Switzerland, NC. It was exactly what I needed: quiet and the lack of a schedule. We did a lot of nothing which was everything to me. Not to mention that it was surrounded by pure beauty. In the quiet and simplicity I hear Him loudest. And what I heard Him saying was "shh...I've got you." It was good. Not to mention that there was a bookstore that I wanted to live in. Wall to wall BOOKS! There were old books, new books, used books, ceiling to floor BOOKS! Two floors of BOOKS! It gave me much joy and I walked away with two new additions to my collection. A 1866 edition of Milton's Paradise Lost and a 1882 edition fo Chaucer.
As for the rest of the weekend there was a lot of rain (which just made it even better), Stacks, yummy food, foosball and a LOT of The Cosby Show season one on dvd accompanied by cookies and milk. Can it get better? I submit that it cannot. (Well actually it could have and I'm going to be really mushy when I say this but it could have been awesomer (yes, I'm making it a word) if Joe could have been there).
Thanks Sandy for opening your home to us and letting us share a weekend with you. Lbzy has some photos and there's some up on my flickr page.
