Meanwhile, back at the ranch.......
Start your day with a cup of gourmet coffee while enjoying the view from one of the two upper balconies. The magnificent vistas encourage your muse soar to new heights.
Continental breakfast; cereal with fruit, bagels, cream cheese, hard boiled eggs, frozen waffles, rolls, coffee, juice. This will be available all morning for those who aren't breakfast eaters but get hungry before lunch.
If you want eggs and bacon, you are welcome to use the kitchen facilities.
We will prepare a Sunday brunch with something special.
| The kitchen is always open- 24/7. We'll have snacks available all day and lots of coffee, iced tea and hot tea, soft drinks, water, etc. We know that creating art can work up a hearty appetite. Feel free to use the dining area or uper balconies any time you need to refresh your mind, body or spirit. These are a relaxing, comfortable spots with beautiful views. |  |
 | Molly has graciously agreed to tolerate the retreat group. She demands very little attention. She might even take the option of retiring to her private room upstairs. She has very little interest in artistic pursuits, but she does enjoy hiding in the storage room. She loves playing hide and seek with Linda. |
| There are three private bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and two with a twin beds. There is one shared bedroom with two twin beds. There is a bathrooon each level, one with a tub and shower and one with a shower. Plenty of closet space for storing your personal possesions. | |
 Tom's office. | |
 You can take a shopping trip with a short walk to the After Midnight Art Stamps store! After Midnight is the USA distributor for Opals embossing enamels and the wonderful Krafty Lady Art Moulds from the lands down under. Check out the shopping cart at our on line store to see what is offerred. | |
| Lunch will be salads/sandwiches/subs/soup. We will be using Jeni Calkins' great recipe for tortilla soup or Tom's wonderful Pozole. You are in for a real Southwestern treat. Tom will be in charge of our dinners. We will start out with a Mexican fiesta the day you arrive, with local wines and Margaritas. This will be a fun get acquainted thingy. We can sit around the fire pit and talk about art trends - or whatever. I know we'll definitely have Tom's salmon one night. Probably his ribs, barbequed chicken, maybe a Mexican fish dish. Tom is both a great fisherman AND a great cook. He even bakes! Anyone for cake and ice cream? We can order pizzas if we want too. The local pizza joint is only 10 minutes away. | |
 The art studios in the main house are well stocked and spacious. Plenty of room to work. | |
