I've been looking at travel sites ...again ! In an effort to cheer me and escape the winter doldrums , a friend sends me pretty pictures . The first one was a Spanish adobe resort in the west...Arizona , I think . Everything is earth-toned , authentic, private and welcoming . Another was on the Maine seacoast...old-money summer-home type decor . It was elegant and comfortable ,with great water views . Next was a famous Caribbean resort...close to my heart is the turquoise sea...with stunning vistas ! There was one around Delaware or Maryland that looked like the Victorian from the Diane Lane movie , Nights In Rodanthe... a real keeper !
Today's contestant is in Napa Valley . It is so beautiful ! Hand-carved wooden captain's chairs around a deep blue tiled pool...walled courtyards with potted gardens...gorgeous bedrooms with hand-painted embellishments above the headboard...Ahhhhh
Isn't it interesting ? One doesn't actually have to go to a place to be influenced by it . Pictures supply a vicarious exposure that seems to do the trick ! Where do you picture yourself for escape ?
