Randi Michelle’s sanctuary is a hidden gem in OB. It reminds me of walking through a portal. Her garden is luscious with passion fruits, avocados, succulents, box turtles and two parrots with personality. It is a surfer’s hideout. Our second night, she invited us to carve pumpkins with her artistic and open minded friends. She put a yoga swing up for me one day when I needed to stretch. She and her sweet little dogs, Lalu and Piggy welcomed my own dog like family. Randi is a busy entrepreneur with her art. She gave us local tips on what to do and was generous with snorkel gear and two beach cruisers. She is walking distance from a great taco place and a well stocked organic grocery store. Randi made me laugh and feel like a sister. I hope I get to visit again someday.
