We've been doing this with my sister's family almost every year for the past 17 years . Hume Lake. Same destination and same cabin for the last 10 years. Its our favorite vacation for just that reason. Nothing seems to change there. We arrive at the cabin and the first thing we do is look to see if anything is new. Nope. All the same. The dishes, the 50's retro green lamp, the Formica dinette set, the gorgeous deck and view, the Naugahyde brown sofas that stick to your thighs, the handmade afghans to bundle up in when the evening chill sets in, and the beloved lumpy beds. We can breathe a sigh of relief that nothing has changed and settle in for a week of fellowship, rest and rejuvenation. This year, as always, the rhythm of Hume will be a comfort.
There are a few added comforts we bring from home that are considered essentials (favorites that have evolved into tradition). We wouldn't dare arrive without the:
1. Tub of red licorice (from Costco because it's the freshest)
2. New stack of magazines
3. Personal selection of books
4. Chips and Salsa
All are packed and ready to go! Hume Lake or bust!!!!!
