Day 4: Sun, 2/16 – Just RelaxingDay 4: Sun, 2/16 – Just Relaxing
Author: Steve Haas
Originally from San Antonio, TX, have lived in Sacramento, CA since 1988 and have trouble imagining living anywhere other than Northern California. Love to travel, albeit a somewhat recently acquired bug in the scheme of things, and my travel blogs have become a thing in and of themselves which I value immensely.
I'm also a recovering alcoholic, sober since 1991, and through that path have dabbled in a wide array of spiritual teachings, which I use to frame, shape and determine how I interpret life and take the next step. Living in the Gray is where I work some of this out.
