These photographs are gorgeous. It is amazing how restorative mother nature is. Even a small amount of time in the wind, on the shore, hiking the hills, lifts a giant load from our shoulders. So glad you are able to enjoy it with friends and family.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052375488090209961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-84217607282333465512018-04-07T10:34:35.875-07:002018-04-07T10:34:35.875-07:00I am so glad you've been able to get away, and...I am so glad you've been able to get away, and to such a spectacular place. (I don't have a clue where Cambria is, so I'm going to look it up as soon as I write this comment!) I can't pretend to understand all you go through as a caregiver, but I can see how respite and restoration would be essential, privilege be damned.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-19069005766188798042018-04-07T10:28:04.529-07:002018-04-07T10:28:04.529-07:00I believe that it is a magnificent triumph that yo...I believe that it is a magnificent triumph that you have been able to find ways to care for yourself regularly without guilt.

Any time you need an island get-away my house is yours. I can make myself scarce for a weekend and you would have the forest and the beach (an eight minute drive from here) to yourself. Let me know.

I can see it in the portrait of you and Cara on the wooden walkway. I can see my why one of my oldest friends, who keeps to herself and whose life has had more than its share of trauma, moved to Cambria after being evacuated from her home in Santa Margarita during fire season a few years ago. The beauty of those spring hills and meadows and of the ocean is sustaining. Simply looking at your photographs lifts my spirits.amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09212213177713917828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-43084061747836200012018-04-05T20:43:05.623-07:002018-04-05T20:43:05.623-07:00I am grateful for your ability to get away, to res...I am grateful for your ability to get away, to restore and recharge and return.

The respites, if it is possible to take them, and often it is just not, MUST be taken when they are available... even if it's difficult not to feel some guilt, which I also often do and I'm not exactly sure why? The Photography was breathtaking and I'm sure this was restorative to the Soul, I'm so Happy you took this respite with Family and Friends and graciously Shared it here in the land of Blog.
