Sometimes you just have to get away for the weekend, right? Time to do nothing…just re-charge your batteries. One of our favorite weekend get-away spots is Catalina Island. Honestly, I think once the boat pulls away from the landing, my stress level drops a good 40%; nothing to do now but sit back, relax and watch the water and the sky. And just about an hour later, the boat pulls into this beautiful little harbor – you want to pinch yourself to make sure you’re still in California and haven’t somehow slipped the space/time continuum and arrived at some exotic island in the Mediterranean or Aegean. Ah…let the nothingness begin…
We ate, we drank, we walked around town, we hiked, we slept, we read…and that’s about it. That’s me in the photo, at the top of the Garden to Sky hike. We trekked up the long, steep trail through Hermit Gulch, and were wowed by the stunning views from the top – well worth all the sweat and the (later) aching muscles.
That little weekend trip was just the re-set button I needed. So how’s your summer going?
