Hawaii Over Labor Day 2015 is a Perfect Quick Trip from Sacramento

There is nothing like lounging on a secluded Hawaiian beach.

One of the really good things a person learns when she grows older is to seize an opportunity when it is presented. I started out thinking it would be fun to take a last-minute trip somewhere over Labor Day 2015. It’s not like I don’t know that Labor Day comes every year, but I didn’t make any plans for this one because I’ve been too busy selling real estate. Days flow into other days, and weeks fly by when you’re having fun selling homes.

At first I tried to find a flight to Mexico that leaves in the evening on Friday and would return Monday night, but there was none. Not out of Sacramento nor San Francisco, nor even Los Angeles. My husband was just appointed by the Governor to a new position at the State, and it’s difficult now for him to take time off. When I couldn’t find a flight that worked, I turned to a new destination, figuring I could just go by myself. Simply because my husband wasn’t available didn’t mean I couldn’t go.

It was just a question of where. Didn’t want to fly too far. So, that narrowed it down to Hawaii. See how my mind works? Yet I don’t have to leave on a Friday night and come back on a Monday evening because I have the magic of technology. Labor Day 2015 rules don’t apply to me. You betcha, I can sell real estate just about anywhere in the world and, in fact, I have. Yes, I am that crazy woman you feel sorry for who is lying on the beach with her cellphone and iPad. Poor miserable workaholic, you mutter under your breath.

Yet, you tend to stop feeling pity when you see me retreat to my 1,200 square-foot corner oceanfront suite or watch me emerge from the spa glowing from head-to-toe or catch me dipping crab legs into butter and washing it down with chilled French champagne.

Nobody is complaining about the trade-offs. Least of all me. I love my job, I find my work extremely fulfilling, and I adore my clients.

My next blog will come to you from the shores near Waimea on the Big Island for Labor Day 2015. Aloha! Remember, if you need to professionally sell a home, call this Sacramento Realtor in Hawaii. I’d love to hear from you. 916.233.6759.
