I don’t know how many of you are lucky enough to have a weekend away with your spouse or significant other, but if you are – they are nice. It has been a long time since Sir and I went away together, but this past week we headed to Half Moon Bay – a great town on the ocean hidden away from San Francisco by mountains. Sir had a business trip and spouses were also invited. The Ritz Carleton is located right on the ocean between two golf courses - so we were able to sit on our ocean front patio, watching golfers finish the 18th hole! We were fortunate to get in the way of a golf ball only once!
While Sir attended meeting, I was treated like a Queen. But having a Queendom, did produce responsibilities. I was responsible for attending three dinners, getting to breakfast on time, showing up for my spa appointments, touring a winery, going shopping, and visiting with other spouses. Each morning I started the day with a walk along the coast upon the cliffs that overlook the ocean. To get to the beach there were many stairs and, unfortunately, when the high tide was in, there was not a continuous beach to walk on. With only a few golf carts out early in the morning, I enjoyed the sound of the ocean, the singing of the seagulls and the hum of mowers. It was a great time to meditate and, once again, be awed at the landscape of our country!
The View from our bedroom - how peaceful!
The Thomas Fogarty Winery - while others were tasting, I was walking through the vineyards.
