Be Careful Little Eyes What You See

There’s a great children’s song that reminds us to guard what influences us, whether it is visual images, conversations or music we listen to, or places we go. There is so so much around us all day, every day, that threatens to overwhelm with rough and tumble information. Today’s news articles, radio headlines, internet graphics and pop-ups, etc. are all replete with gory details and no-holds-barred language. Maybe worst is the surprise teasers for upcoming movies or shows that appear without warning when watching an otherwise “safe” selection on tv. Creepy horror movies are highlighted (?!) during an afternoon ballgame, for instance. Where can you turn with confidence that you can just relax??

One of the great things about a getaway to Gualala and Sea Ranch is that there is very little “danger” to be on guard against. It’s perfectly safe to take the kids out on the trails, to the beach or the playground. Or fly a kite, or visit the farmer’s market, or the Point Arena Lighthouse or the amazing B. Bryan Preserve with real-live zebras and other hoofstock!

A true vacation should be relaxing for all the senses, and I can’t think of a greater place to vacation (or to live!) than Gualala. Come on up, and relax with us.
