My Spring Break 3

A Conversation With a Friend

A few months ago I was having coffee with a friend of mine. The name of a mutual friend came up. We are both in awe of her. She is a home organizer as well as life organizer. Her skills are terrific!

My friend mentioned that our mutual friend often goes to Rancho La Puerta to give talks.

Aaaahhh! Iconic Rancho La Puerta. The original wellness retreat.

It was established more than 85 years ago. The founder is 104 years old and still involved in the business, and still family operated.

My friend and I decided that we had to put it on our "to do" list.

As I recalled the conversation another possibility opened up for me. Why hadn't I thought of it before?

Rancho La Puerta is Disneyland for adults, or summer camp for adults but without roughing it.

It is elegant. It is mostly all inclusive (spa treatments and a few other activities are extra).
It is close to San Diego.
It has a lot of options, with abut five classes every hour of the day.
Guests can do as much or as little as they want.
It is stunningly beautiful.

Time for serious research!

Renew your mind, body, and spirit on a journey to true wellness. At Rancho La Puerta, near San Diego, California, you retreat from life's stress and distract...
