The Galvez

 It is always important {for all of us} to take some time out.  Rest and reflection are essential to leading a balanced life.  Think about it, we all need a balanced diet {everything in moderation}. And what happens when we eat junk food for months at a time...our bodies will tell let us know!  It's the same with work and play.  It's easy to get caught up in the world's story...{just look at the headlines, which I try not to do so much}.  
I was blessed to spend the weekend at the historic Galvez hotel, opened in 1911, on Galveston island.  In addition to the haunts that live here, this immaculate get-a-way resort is just the prescription for a fatigued mind, body, and soul.  
Where do you like to go to leave the world for a while? 

Miles and miles of chocolate!
