We’re driving in our car … we’ve turned on the radio! I think everyone should either own a convertible or rent one because you should have the opportunity to be “one of them!” at least once. Plus as you drive along, you get to enjoy all the elements that are usually shielded by the frame of the car. Strawberries … yum. Salt air … refreshing. Lettuce … debateable.
We made our way down the coast to our lodgings at the Big Sur Lodge. (www.bigsurlodge.com). No TV. No radio. No phones. Just a fireplace, a book and good company. It is amazing how a little separation from civilization can calm my nerves. Of course, I had to process work stuff but that is pretty easy to do while stepping over logs, avoiding poison oak and viewing the waterfalls.
Our plans can be summarized by the following:
- Hike
- Eat
- Read
- Hike
- Eat
- Read
- Sleep
- Repeat
Along the coast!
Not a bad way to spend the weekend and over the course of three days we enjoyed three different hikes. I would talk about the person in the restaurant who broke a chair when he sat down … but I swore not to mention names.
