We are "resorting" again for our birthdays this year. Much as we love our life and our routines here, it is wonderful to be away for a couple of days of biking, swimming, eating, sleeping, repeat. Denise, Dan's sister, volunteered awhile back for ranch duty, so we asked her to come and have a vacation with us during which we could escape for a couple of days.
Denise is not the outdoors type that we are, though capable of any task. This is a marketing executive who works, and has lived, all over the world doing strategic planning for her company. But this morning she got up, after yesterday's training (note the iPad), and did all the chores while we went on a birthday bike ride. What a great present!
Denise's coworkers apparently laughed at the idea of her being a country girl, and requested proof of her being able to shovel horse poop in the most literal sense of the word. They know she can deal with the office generated stuff very effectively.
We will still have some days together after we return from our weekend away, and I look forward to that as I enjoy her quiet company and good conversation. Besides, she eats what I cook.
