...i thought of a beautiful, peaceful, picturesque, serene, wonderful, relaxing and life changing place...looked all over the internet, and... Found Rancho Mojave... and it was perfect! Perfect for Shauna's 31st. birthday to capture the beauty with her camera...She took over 100 pictures! Shauna, Pauline, Jen and Lea- We all did not want to leave this place and we enjoyed every moment here, beginning with our drive in, the cooling breeze, the peaceful sound of silence with nature and the wind...We fell in love with the casita and all its charm and privacy. Every view from every window, every porch and all the stories and knowledge Ron & Cecilia shared, especially when Cecilia drew a map in the sand with her finger and when Ron shared his history of the original Indians who occupied these lands during the Homestead era...What wonder we have as we only got a glimpse of how much this place holds. We send our special love and wishes into these lands, this home, to Ron and Cecilia, and the stars...we touched and made our wishes. Thanks you for giving us Beauty and Peace in our hearts! We will return for more...! Love always, Shauna, Pauline, Jen, Lea

As we drove out of the storm into Morongo Valley, a double rainbow appeared in the sky. This evening I sit on the back porch with a cup of hot chocolate & gaze up at the moon. Ryan relaxes in the couch watching "Hairspray". My soul returns to me... 11/22/10 There is magic here. I took a walk by moonlight last night before retiring; the moon was so bright it lit the desert painting it silver so no flashlight was necessary. My bladder woke me at 3:00 and the silence was so profound it felt like an awareness, a listening, able to receive all of my nightmares and dreams. 11/23/10 I am not sure which I prefer; the moonlight night or the glorious mornings, waking up to a desert sunrise while cuddled in luxurious linens and down comforter. How generous to share your treasures with complete strangers! 11/24/10 I am drinking my coffee on the porch that shelters one from the wind; but there is no wind this morning, only clouds rolling in. I am afraid we take the sun of us. Georgia O'Keefe came to the desert to paint. The desert fathers found God here. I am here for respit, for sanity and these I have found along with peace. This Thanksgiving my heart overflows with gratitude. Blessing on your home. May you be safe, healthy, happy, live at ease. Maria

Dear Cecilia & Ron, Rancho Mojave holds much magic for the visitors lucky enough to stumble upon it. I am sitting, as i write this, in your sacred hammock- a spot where i experienced perhaps the most peaceful and quiet moments i have ever known. Even our 4 year old, Cyrus, kept remarking on the peaceful nature of the desert and la casita. Coming from a four year old--this says a lot! We thank you for your warm hospitality and for the opportunity to "meet" the desert. This has been a marvelous way to welcome a new decade and to celebrate our family. Affectionately, Alexandra, Nils, Cyrus & Celeste

Cecilia & Ron, Many thanks for letting us into your beautiful rancho on such a short notice. Little did we know that one spare of the moment trip would turn out to be such beautiful trip. We have enjoyed every minute with you and Josie. You are very special people and together have created this wonderful place. Merry Christmas to you, thanks you for everything, and may the new year bring only peace and happiness into your home. Erica & Itai

11/09/07 thru 11/12/07 Dear Cecilia & Ron- You've done such a beautiful thing--creating a place where people can get away fron the "rat race" for awhile to reconnect. It seems that life has sped up so much and has also become so complicated. It's so good for our spirits to slow down and practice simplicity. What a blessing to find this beautiful Casita. We hope to return in the near future. Thanks so very much, Christy & Dave Roush P.S. Our dogs also loved their freedom here, and meeting Josie for some good walks in the desert

Nov.20 thru 24th, 2007 Cecilia, Ron and Josie, This was the perfect place to spend Thanksgiving and reflect on all that we are thankful for- the stars, the planets, the wind, the moon, the sun and each other... Thanks so much for creating this peaceful place and opening it to us. John, Judy and Rae
