Ojai Calling

We arrived home from our leisurely trip less than two weeks ago and I already feel like I need another vacation. I hit the ground running as soon as we landed from Miami. We found a tenant and he wanted to take possesion in a week so I have been hustling coordinating painters, cleaners, movers, etc. It's a shame that the house we rented is not cash flow positive because I would love to justify a weekend jaunt to the Ojai Valley Inn to partake in some sun bathing by the pool, spa treatments and delightful cuisine. The Spanish style architecture of the inn and the grounds are gorgeous! The inn was developed in the early 1900s as a private country club and has gone through many transitions before it was privately purchased and transformed in a 90 million dollar renovation. The interior design reminds me of Kathryn Ireland's style though I am pretty sure the inn hired another firm. The rooms are decorated in stripes, florals and geometric cotton fabrics in shades of blue, marigold and rust. Charlotte, I think we are due for another visit soon!
