we'd been looking forward to our getting together all summer.
finally the weekend came!
she was ready for a little break from her 2 daughters and
arizona's summer heat, and i was needing a break from work and
some girl time.
we stayed at piersouth, a hotel that just opened last year south of san diego.
connie and I found it near perfect.
it was located far from the super trendy areas of san diego which meant
it was more affordable and it wasn't crowded...the hotel nor the beach
directly out front.
the style was modern and minimal....letting the backdrop {water} be the focus.
all the rooms were large suites and each were oceanfront. you could hear the
waves lapping up on shore from your room. the bonus, they even had balconies
...perfect for sipping our morning coffees.
i joked that it felt like we were celebrating an anniversary or a big b-day.
we weren't officially, but we were celebrating something special - our friendship.
{we go back 18 years and have stories to prove it}.
we spent the evening and the entire next day eating, drinking,
visiting the pier, swimming, lounging and yes, talking....a lot.
old friends....they truly are a staple in life.
i feel so lucky to have her in mine.
~ i almost forgot, the night before connie flew back home to tucson,
i had an impromptu movie night so she could see what gerber backyard movie
nights are all about. i invited a small group of girlfriends over and we watched
the other woman and laughed out loud throughout. it was lots of fun!
