Random images remind me of ‘home’
In the midst of packing, and abysmal English weather, I pause to look back at what I have to look forward to. One of these images might get me into trouble when I return. My very last day, when the dry river beds weren’t, but the company was good.
I hope Spring has sprung for you. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! Let’s get straight to the point with Debbie and her Six Words.
Beautiful 🙂

And what a home it will be! You definitely won’t miss the weather of your “ex” home! Enjoy the weekend, Jo. Freezing temps here, but spring should spring soon. Hoping the same over there.

I guess I’ve missed something here. Are you moving to Portugal permanently? Either way, I know it’s the home of your heart and I’m happy when you’re there enjoying it. We plunged from our spring weather back into cold, rainy, and windy. It looks as if it will be like that tomorrow as well before getting back to what real spring is like around here: mid-fifties F temperatures and, hopefully, sunshine.
Happy Saturday, no matter the weather.

Yes, hopefully around September time, Janet. Our house is on the market and I’m feeling a bit wobbly. 🙂 🙂 Tuesday is set to be Spring, if you believe our forecast.

I imagine that’s a lot of stress, Jo. I remember when our house was on the market, the getting ready to move, the move, and then trying to find places for everything, etc. These are times filled with many and mixed emotions, but I know you’ll weather them well and come out happy on the other side (literally and figuratively.) 🙂

Two nights ago we had thunder & torrential rain in the Algarve. Apparently a mini tornado in Albufeira caused damage to several cars. Yesterday was cool and very windy but today we have bright warm sunshine at last!

Jo, first of all, what were you all doing in the river?!😀 Looks fun though! Oh, these are beautiful and no wonder you long to return ‘home’ – a place which does not have to be singular! The first photo is idyllic, tantilising as we glimpse betweenghe bushes to the beach and ocean. After three weeks of non-stop sunshine in Sweden it was a shock to return to grey and rain here … which has been pretty constant I heard! Fingers crossed Spring sets its mark this weekend! Hugs xxx ❤️

For months before that the river beds had been bone dry, Annika, but the first rains were substantial and the only way across was to wade. A bit of a shock to the system 🙂 🙂 We actually have sunshine today but it’s been a cold miserable week. Welcome back and thank you for bringing Spring with you 🙂
