Over the weekend of June 23 and 24, I went to Big Bear Lake with my Godparents and my best friend. It was an "old school" trip, so we all called it, reminiscent of all the years that we took these weekends away. The house is absolutely amazing. Little did I believe that the house could be improved, some how Dan and Cindy managed to take things to a higher echelon. On Saturday Christine and I were given the grand tour of the newly remodeled lake house. I am completely speechless. We helped Dan and Cindy uncover the new wicker furniture and at the end of a great first day we decided to take the boat to dinner over at B's Backyard BBQ. The sun was still high in the sky as we left.

Girls will be girls, and when Betty and Veronica are together, and with a camera, only silly things can come about...
silliness ensues...
After filling our stomach with yummy BBQ food, we managed to have perfect timing to see the sunset. Here my Godparents are showing some love in front of the most beautiful background of the world.

we could not stay "none-silly" for long.
Christine and I spent the evening in the "Lake Room" which now has a marvelous balcony, that give you the best view of Big Bear Lake.
I always have to take pictures of myself on a balcony....
Sunday we spent the entire day relaxing, running errands, helping around the house.....
I had such a grand time up in the mountains, taking a retreat from the hustle bustle of the "real world" where people go about their days doing what needs to be done and calling it a day. Here, it is possible to retreat, relax, get done what needs to be done, and still feel refreshed, calm and just plain old happy with life.
