06/07/2007: "The Lap of Luxury"
I am not sure where that saying comes from. My buddy Ellen is best at discovering those tidbits. But if you need a definition, Sonoma Mission Inn and Spa would certainly qualify. What a beautiful four days and three nights here in Sonoma. Jeanette’s reward trip not only included a fireplace suite but cash to spend on meals and wine.
We took the TT convertible all around the valley targeting some select wineries as far north as Healdsburg. We also enjoyed a couple of spa treatments and hospitality of the resort. We found some great dinner restaurants around the square in town and had lunches in beautiful gardens at the wineries.
Removed from work and the kids for a few days is a real treat. You get to a level of relaxation that you had forgotten existed. And to be able to do it in high style with no worries is truly a gift. I couldn’t stop thanking Jeanette for her hard work that earned us a great break together.
Big thanks to our sister in-law Colleen and friends Helen and Terry for stepping into our shoes at the house. No easy task to get the kids together and settled for the evening and out the door in the mornings.
