Yesterday, Maureen asked us to share our favorite gift. I had trouble deciding what to post, so I almost just skipped this week. I have received lots of fabulous gifts from wonderful people. Books and clothes, jewelry, gadgets, electronics, trips and gift cards, homemade gifts and tickets. Right this minute, everything I’m wearing was a gift from someone, except my glasses (and underwear and makeup). The outfit was an early birthday present from my mom and she gave me my boots last year. David gave me my rings and watch, and the shawl was a gift from my in-laws years ago.
But last night it dawned on my what my favorite gift is. For our 15th anniversary gift to ourselves, David and I went to The Wilds. We spent the night in a yurt there. We had a delicious dinner and breakfast, went on two tours that were just us and the guide. It was really amazing and since it was off-season, the place was practically deserted, except for the staff and the animals. I’d love to do it again some day.
What was your favorite gift? Join in at Maureen’s Books.
I love gifts that create lasting memories.
Me too and the Wilds is a pretty unique place, at least for around here.
What a great gift to give yourselves. Looks very peaceful. I remember your posts about The Wilds from a few years ago.
Yeah, we’ve gone there several times. Last winter we took amber and a friend of hers for a Wildside Tour.
That is amazing! *^-^*
Such breathtaking pictures!
And it’s so close, so going for a couple days is a great getaway, but doesn’t take too much planning.
I remember when you blogged about this…gifts like that are treasures!
I was just telling my husband we should do it again.
That was a fun trip.
That would be amazing! Great gift!
Wow! That sounds like a great trip. And what an amazing trip. I love those pictures.
Thanks for sharing your favorite and signing up.
Oh my gosh, that is actually amazing!!! Did you actually see all those animals in the pic? :0 wooooooow
Oh, I love The Wilds! I’d love to stay in the yert someday 🙂
