A Much Needed Respite!

It happens to us every year.  Between coming off the hectic holiday season and the cabin fever we experience in Cleveland’s January climate, my husband and I feel drained.  Although hunkering down in our own home can feel cozy and warm, it’s when we venture out and find a new location to relax and refresh ourselves that we feel reconnected to one another.   This past weekend we went to a place we had never been to before for the sole purpose of spending time alone together.  The place we went to is called Holmes with a View in Holmes county, the heart of the Amish Country. Homes with a View is a series of circular homes with windows that afford a wonderful view of rolling hills dotted with barns, silos, and fences.  Each home has a gas fireplace, a jacuzzi, and an eat-in kitchen.  We felt completely cacooned!  We left the following morning feeling reacqauinted and refreshed.  Ahhh, just what we needed!
