Adventure Close to Home

During this pandemic a lot of things are off the table, even birthday parties. Adults get it, but kids have a harder time with accepting this one. OK, maybe parents just think they do and it's really us desperate to get together with our friends.... Anyway, instead of a party for Quinn's 10th birthday we were able to find a home to rent in one of our favorite places on earth, Bodega Bay. It was a splurge, but since we had saved for a trip to see family over seas and couldn't go, we got a cool home for a couple of nights and enjoyed the dream of coastal living. We even got to take the furry kids. If you can do so safely, I recommend getting out of your home and to a place that doesn't have to do list items every place you look.
