Dear and I are at Semiahmoo Resort in Blaine Washington celebrating our anniversary. That’s White Rock Canada across the Salish Sea/Strait of Georgia/Semiahmoo Bay! We headed out for a morning walk but the wind chill factor threatened to freeze our faces off so we didn’t last long. I did manage to get some photos of the lovely views we have from this resort which sits on a spit between Drayton Harbor and the Strait of Georgia.
This was the view from our room last night when we arrived just before sunset. We headed to the restaurant to meet friends of ours from Birch Bay for Happy Hour.
When we got back to our room the hotel had left a nice little treat for us to help our anniversary celebration.
Back to this mornings freezing walk…
I thought of Vee when I saw this bush with the red berries.
We’re so close to White Rock, Canada that my cell phone company sent me a text warning me about international roaming fees. I called them immediately and told them I was still in the U.S.A. and they better not charge me for roaming fees. They were happy to oblige…
This building is the restaurant at Semiahmoo where we had our meal last night. Semiahmoo resort was closed for many months and was re-opened in August of this year. There are still several million dollars worth of renovations that they are in process of including renovating the rooms and the restaurants. We took advantage of the lower rates while they are in process.
In this next photo I tried to capture the stiff wind that was threatening to freeze our faces. I think the high today is only suppose to reach 28 degrees!
We have massages booked today at 2:00 in the Resort’s Spa. I’m really looking forward to that. We will be here one more night and then we’ll meander southward home tomorrow. Hope you all have a nice weekend.

I’m so happy you are there enjoying a wonderful anniversary time together. A couples massage will be perfect today. I hope that room is nice and warm!
Happy Anniversary, you two! Have fun…and stay warm over there.
Happy Anniversary! You’ve picked a gorgeous location for your celebration!
Happy sweet blessed anniversary. Throwing lots of snow from down here in Oregon to help you celebrate. 🙂
Enjoy that special anniversary of 39 years. How special to still take time to celebrate…and enjoy the massage…it will be wonderful.I loved that last photo…
Many blessings to you two! Happy Anniversary!
Oh massages! How very relaxing! Sounds as if you are enjoying a wonderful anniversary in a beautiful location.
Sorry about thinking of me when you saw those berries. It’s probably because I am the only blogger who talks about them incessantly!
Happy anniversary! Praying this is a year of new joys and much favor over both of you!
Happy Anniversary to you and Mr. B! May God continue to bless you and yours.
Oh dear Ellen – I hope you and your Dear have a most wonderful time. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!! It all sounds and looks so lovely. Blessings……
How was the massage and dinner, Ellen? So funny, in the summer we walked the boardwalk at Whiterock and looked across at Semiahmoo … now you are seeing it the other way around.
I’ve had my phone sitting here in my office all night and come down in the morning with a message offering me roaming package.
Congrats, Ellen! My next door neighbour. 🙂
Happy Anniversary. You picked one of the loveliest places in Whatcom County to stay. Semiahmoo is near and dear to my heart. I go there often and walk the beach and the trails. Sorry you had to deal with the cold. Come back in summer when it’s warm!
What a beautiful way to celebrate — congratulations to both of you!
HUGE congratulations to you both for 39 years of what has surely been an adventure!!!
Happy Anniversary to you and your dear!
Thanks for sending that strong wind down here! We’re having fierce Santa Anas today.
A belated Happy Anniversary to the both of you!
