Dang! I need a VACATION!

...which is a good thing since we have one coming up. While traveling in the United States, I've never been west of Vegas which is why I'm so very excited about this coming Saturday. Alvaro and I are flying to San Francisco and will get to explore, eat, play and discover for one whole week. If you know anything about me you know that I've already planned out the things I HAVE to see before we can come home on the 25th. Here's what I can't miss:
1. Alcatraz (can't explain my strange fascination with this place and it's history)
2. China Town (again...the history and the people)
3. The wine country (gonna sample some good stuff)
4. Otters and sea lions
5. Worship at Glide Memorial United Methodist Church (a preacher friend told me not to miss it)
6. ...and lots of stuff I don't even know about yet.
Vacation is a time to recharge, discover (locations, ways of thinking and mindsets) and live. No matter how much we love what we do, we HAVE to take advantage of that moment of escape and other placeness (yep, just made up a word). Whether it's a week or a simple mental health day, make time to take care of yourself so that you can be the best servant you can be.
