Sea Ranch

 Today I am preparing for my annual vacation at Sea Ranch, California. I won’t tell you where it is because it is not crowded and my sister and Jane like it that way. It is the one real vacation I take each year. We usually go late in October into November for eight days which includes my sister’s birthday. We shop groceries locally and cook at home each evening, early before the World Series or football.  We both enjoy cooking, reading, outdoor exercise and one another.  We have done this almost every year since 1988 when I discovered the place.  It is better than a retreat for me.  The right place, the right person, and God joins us.  Or we join God.
