The Monday after Thanksgiving is always a challenge to get back into the swing of things. I was spoiled having my 4 day weekend and now it's back to reality. The weather held up over the weekend, it was 50' and sunny so no complaints there. I worked on a couple trips today. I like when people give me a challenge. They tell me they want to go somewhere, give me their dates and then they tell me what their budget is. It's my job to find all possible options for them to create the perfect getaway. Most people think of all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean or Mexico but there is another type of an all-inclusive offered. You can visit a Dude Ranch! What's included varies by each Ranch but many offer all meals and activities (horse back riding, fishing, archery etc). It's rustic setting in the middle of nature with few people around can be a unique getaway compared to the crowded beaches and long lines found at many of the bigger all inclusive resorts along the sunny coastlines. You can find accommodations ranging from very basic (camping) to luxurious family suites. This type of vacation is not for everyone but for those wanting an active, hands on experience with the land and the Ranch lifestyle it doesn't get much better.
