You did well, since La Costa is not really, and has never been, a spa in real life. Services and Deepak for a whole lot of extra money do not a spa make.

One just looks up close at the salient areas that need attention–like the eyebrows.

Ojai really is an oasis, very artsy–you’d love it. And we will work on making sure you see it when we have the writers’ weekend.

I want to come to your writers’ conference! Not sure if coming from Ohio will work with my finances, but I WANT TO COME! The spa sounds fabulous and learning from you in person would be a great experience. I looked to see if the spa’s website mentioned when it opened, but I couldn’t find a date. I lived in Carpinteria right after my divorce in 1984-85 and think it might have been new then. Maybe not. Never made it to Ojai but it sounded like a peaceful, lovely location nestled in the hills away from SoCal craziness.
