What’s the best local dish you’ve ever eaten while traveling?
My son-in-law, André Solioz, is a phenomenal chef. When we travel to Switzerland to be with him, our daughter, and their family, his food is to die for!! The local dish is cheese fondue and it’s wonderful. But his specialty that I love is a pork roast. Oh, he creates it in such a mouth-watering way. You’d love it! But, his dishes all are amazing!

Happy 2nd birthday to our pup, Kenny!!
Have you watched any of the TV series called “The Madison”? It’s filmed right here in and around Ennis.

The gift of hospitality
Cannot be taken for granted
It’s a gift to be treasured
A gift that cannot be measured
and…
Tonight we’re headed to a Pittsburgh baseball game. So, stay tuned! I’ll be back!
Love, JanBeek
Thanks for traveling with me vicariously!

No prompt needed
Sitting at the back

Gives you an interesting perspective
Look at all those people
Row after row
Nothing but houses
A city coming up
No prompt needed
Just look at life
Exciting, isn’t it?

Visiting Marcie meant being able to share time with her daughter Stacey,
son-in-law Jeff, & grandchildren. Such a privilege!
Jeff & Marcie showed us around the area and treated us like royalty.
Stacey & Jeff treated us to dinner in their lovely home! We feel totally loved!
What a treat to travel up to Signal Mountain and Lookout Mountain and see the homes & vistas up there!
Thanks for traveling vicariously with us…
See ya tomorrow.
Love,

Our son, Ty in CA, and our daughter, De in Switzerland , combined forces and bought us a gift certificate for Mother’s Day to one of our favorite Bozeman, Montana restaurants: Dave’s Sushi. Today we used it with great delight!
Who do you think enjoyed theirs more??
Cheers! My Bliss roll was magnificent! But we both equally enjoyed the house red … a delightful blend.
Look at those sushi rolls again.
And we had enough left on our gift certificate to give Thomas , our terrific waiter, a nice tip.
Thank you, Thomas. Thank you, kids! We’re so glad you made me a mother!!
Now tomorrow we’re headed to Chattanooga. Stay tuned, my blogging friends. I’ll let you travel along vicariously.
We’re praying for warmer weather in Tennessee. It’s been a crazy May here in Montana. Today we had gray breezes, restless puffy clouds, snow, rain, and then bright sunny skies…. All within 5 hours in Bozeman. Crazy!!!

It was an extra 6 hour drive – stressful in torrential rains, but well worth it to be able to spend time at Carmel by the Sea and experience the Asilomar coast. Sooo beautiful!
Don’t know what that white is…
Don’t know what that black spot is!
God is good! Now, a safe drive to Sacramento airport early tomorrow- and I’ll see you back in Montana.
Love, JanBeek
It’s hard to believe August is already here. The months fly by! Each new month feels like crossing over a bridge into a new chapter in our lives.
My youngest grandson has has a long-distance relationship with a girl from Colombia. They’ve been sweethearts for more than 6 years. With the help of FaceTime and occasional visits to/from Switzerland, they have kept love alive.
I can’t imagine how hard it must be to love someone who lives so far away.
When Bob & I were dating and when we were engaged, he was in the army, stationed in Germany. We went two weeks between communication- a letter at a time.
What was your dating experience with your loved one way back when? Or do you have a loved one far away now? How do you manage?
We crossed the bridge from distance to closeness 64 years ago and have remained close ever since. I’m so glad I don’t have to rely on a computer or phone screen to see my loved one.
Have a Happy August. And keep love alive!
Hugs, JanBeek
What’s the one luxury you can’t live without?
Air: an essential… treat each breath as a luxury. Never waste a minute of the breath you receive. It’s the gift of life. Every day is a luxury. Cherish it!
Here are some ways I live and share the luxuries inherent in every day:
Can’t live without the contacts with loved ones … so grateful for the luxury of their shared experiences!
God bless those loved ones in our lives who share their experiences with us, huh? Such sharing definitely is a luxury for us as receivers. Thank you for sharing yours, too🥰👌🏽!
Love,
JanBeek
