Life in Oakhurst

Writing little snippets about my daily life is nothing more than trying to

remain connected to people I care about most.

How often do we cruise through life not relishing even the tiniest of

successes, learning opportunities and pleasures much less sharing those chosen

moments with people that support and even look forward to our next adventure in

life.

2002 was the year of loss for my husband and I.

Not all of our losses were negative between the two of us we lost over

100 lbs.!

Once youve experienced the type of losses we did during this year, you

begin to take stock in your values, dreams and priorities. So in an attempt to redefi ne

ourselves we sold our fully paid for San Diego based home and moved to a

one- bedroom, two-story, beyond-ugly green, get away pad on a ten acre parcel on

Deadwood Mountain. (Makes me want to keep an eye out for Outlaw/ Rustlers)

A perfectly reasonable diversion for two city folks, with the belief that bears

belong in the zoo and lattes should be available on every street corner! Why not

uproot the declawed cats, and never consider asking ourselves the question So

what is the difference between septic and sewer?

What we found, are the experiences that make us smile, question (what

were we thinking?) and somehowsome way appreciate our new life through the

absurd and benign evolution of every day events.

To add to the mayhem, we decided to become innkeepers and pool our

resources together to build our own little slice of heaven as we create the perfect Bed

and Breakfast. It didnt really matter that I never met a bed I ever wanted to make

up or the thought of scrubbing toilets leaving me a little disgruntled. It was the

idea of living in paradise and sharing it with great people along the way.

So here we are sharing a few snippets of Life in Oakhurst
