A Weekend To Remember!

We had the most wonderful time in Madison this past weekend, returning home Monday evening. Our beautiful friends, Margo and Jim, gave us a weekend to remember. We started Friday night with dinner at the 605 Restaurant with a great bottle of wine shared by all. Then Saturday morning, we got an early start to the town fountain for breakfast at the farmer's market. After that, it was non-stop shopping until 5:00 that night.

We visited every shop in Madison including the antique malls and even had time for the Hanover Flea Market. Together, Margo and I uncovered some wonderful treasures. We hurried home to clean, polish and shine everything. It was the most fun I've had in a long time, and I came home with beautiful crystal candle sticks, silver plated wine bottle holder, polka dot dessert dishes, a breath taking water pitcher (it is so gorgeous) 4 wine glasses and some matching dishes to sets I had bought in Madison years ago.

We wrapped Saturday up with a few bottles of wine, salad and some delicous bread and cheese from the local Thomas Family Winery, all served in our host's "famous" patio garden. (They were in the Madison Garden Tour a few years ago.)

Sunday was a dinner party with three other couples, and we celebrated our host, Jim's, birthday. We brought Godiva Chocolate Cheese cake, another couple brought homemade ice cream, Margo made a delicious fresh berry dessert to go with, and we were all in heaven. Add Plungerhead wine to the menu, and it was divinely delicious!

Jim and I both came home floating on air. It is with tremendous Joy that we look back at the friends we have made on our path to here. And Joy is spending time with these good friends.

And it is with great anticipation and Joy that I am looking forward to the friendships we will make on this Tennessee leg of our Journey.

Here's to the Journey!
