we came to Vicki’s place in from the bay area, to escape the fires and the smoke. we found when we arrived a peaceful, comfortable, cool, clean, safe, spacious place to call home for a while. it worked well for a work from home situation, and distance learning, too, with two students in elementary school, all of us on zoom calls at the same time. it wasn’t hard to get dinners and groceries delivered. it wasn’t hard to get to some great beaches. vicki was responsive and considerate and accommodating. we left feeling grateful for our time there.
