If you live on planet earth in this century, you are no doubt experiencing stress...maybe a little, maybe a lot...being that I am writing this in 2020 a LOT is the norm. I just spent three days and two nights in this blissfully appointed and ideally located cottage planted on an expansive property surrounded by space, sky, horses, silence and I'm pretty sure magic fairies that take your stress away while you sleep. Joanne has made sure there is little you need to think about while there. You can cook simple meals, as I did for most, but you can also find anything you want locally with the great resource she has provided with everything outlined, described and easy to find thanks to the addresses and phone numbers right in the book...which you can take with you when you are out exploring! I spent hours hiking in the Redwoods to the East of the property a few miles and then equal hours walking next to the ocean and watching the sunset at the beach. Fall is the PERFECT time of year...still warm, much less crowded, and by the end of the day I could feel the stress had drained from my body. Evenings by the firepit are delightful...a little music and some tea...though she also provides you with a bottle of wine if you want...and somehow I feel hope again. I just got home and couldn't wait to write my gratitude here...I am already looking at my calendar to see when I can go back.
