Pure relaxation




Our anniversary is Wednesday; 31 whole years together! We have been feeling stressed this last nine months, and with good reason, given Jim's multiple surgeries, his 6 months off work and my sister's death.

On Thursday I realized that the last time we had been out of town overnight together was the first week in October, when we flew to San Antonio after Tami died. That was hardly a pleasant experience, and it was quite some time ago.

So, an overnight outing together was long overdue. I decided that we could celebrate our anniversary a few days early. I called and got both a reservation at Patit Creek AND a room at the Weinhard hotel in Dayton . The trip was set up.

As always, the food was delicious at Patit Creek, and the Weinhard is a restored hotel in Dayton, built in 1909. You can read more about it here

For us, a trip out of town is quality time together. We talk, and laugh and think about all sorts of things. When we're at home, we tend to go off and do our own thing. Quality time. It was what we needed and that was what we got.
