Six word Saturday

Home is where the heart is?

I seem to keep leaving mine behind.  It’s a bad habit!

Who wouldn't love a place that looked like this?

Who wouldn’t love a place that looked like this?

With Nativity scenes like this

With Nativity scenes like this

And this

And this

And a pontoon bridge like this

And a pontoon bridge like this

Countryside like this

Countryside like this

Washing on a line like this

Washing on a line like this

Even with moody skies like this

Even with moody skies like this.

Or how about happy dogs on a sunset beach like this

Or how about happy dogs on a sunset beach like this

Beside the ferry, abandoned for the winter

Beside the ferry, abandoned for the Winter,

Or maybe a view like this would charm

Or maybe a view like this would charm

Views like this

Or even, like this?

I expect you can see why I keep leaving my heart behind?  Each time, I say “Goodbye little house”, with a lump in my throat.

It’s Saturday again, and six words time. Cate at Show My Face is our hostess. Would you like to play?

  2. People love coming to your blog and seeing what your last adventure was Jo!!!! I always enjoy the pictures and feel as though I had gone along with you just by viewing the pictures!

  4. Too bad you can’t have two hearts, Jo. We like to travel too but like you, we have a nice home to come home to. Maybe London could be a second home for us. (They may move back by summer!!!)

      1. Because of work, Jo. She has had two two-year jobs that are very stressful. Most ex-pats only do one. So she is coming back probably to Texas here but it could be Chicago. We hope nut there, but either should be a very good position.
        She studied accounting but now is in finance as a team leader in analysis and forecasting in the oil and gas business. She says they have $7 figures invested in her. We are proud of her. :). One of her older brothers is a VP in a venture capital company holding oil and gas interests.

  8. At least you are able to escape this dreary weather Jo. Not sure I could tear myself away from there either, but at least you know you are going back – and one day, maybe for good!

    1. It’s true! It’s true! 🙂 🙂
      Did you see my walk around Castro Marim, Jude- A gift from the sea? What a day that was! Happy Sunday to you (if a little wet 😦 )

  11. Oh Jo, I know how you miss the Algarve when you’re away from it! I love your photo gallery of Algarve shots, especially the wash on the line and the landscape. They bring back happy memories to me too. Don’t be too sad to be home! xxx

      1. Well, you’re on holiday when there, so there is probably some truth to that “illusion.” I don’t know about you, but when I’m home I feel like I have a million obligations and distractions. 🙂

    1. It is, Suze 🙂 Sometimes I feel like there is so much more world I should be out there seeing, but it’s always like coming home. And anyway- I’ve got you to see the world and report back for me 🙂

  20. I can totally see why your heart would be in such a fabulous spot! The washing on the line photo says it all. Now the six word challenge…that would be very tough for this verbose one. 🙂
