We had a fantastic time at Jeanie's place. It was a perfect home base for a conference at Asilomar plus fun outings for the family, including exploring the beach, visiting the aquarium, and running around the playground (there is a playground immediately behind the house in addition to the incomparable "Dennis the Menace" playground in Monterey). The kitchen was well stocked with plates, pots, bags, etc. which made it easy for us to have pretty much every meal at the house. The yard was filled with lovely decorative touches and "treasures," while the house had toys and spaces for the kids to explore and enjoy. Jeanie was a fabulous host -- incredibly kind, thoughtful and quick with responses and help.
