THE BEACH IS ONLYA DAYAWAY Take a Drive to Rocky Point
Are you looking for a beach vacation but want to avoid overcrowded California beaches? Consider driving south! In the same amount of time it would take you to drive to Reno from Las Vegas, you could be at a beach resort on the Sea of Cortez. That’s right, Rocky Point (or Puerto Peñasco, as it is known by locals) is less than a nine-hour drive from Southern Nevada. Rocky Point is situated on the north end of the Sea of Cortez
and features a quiet and relaxed beach-town atmosphere only a day’s drive away.
is due in large part to the proximity of Rocky Point to Arizona and the ease of getting there. Americans and other foreigners visit Rocky Point yearly in droves to take in the beautiful Sea of Cortez. The allure of a Rocky Point vacation to many is that it is a drive-to destination. A lot of travelers will drive to Rocky Point on a Friday and head back home on a Sunday, giving themselves a fun-filled weekend at the beach.
Rocky Point started out as a sleepy fishing village and has slowly undergone quite a transition into its current state, a major Mexican beach destination. In fact, Rocky Point is one of the fastest-growing tourist destinations in all of Mexico. Rocky Point is referred to by many as “Arizona’s beach.” This
SPENDING THE HOLIDAYS ALONE? Boost Your Mood With These Tips
Many Americans spend the holidays alone every year, and the pandemic has only made it more difficult for people to see their loved ones, as travel has become more restricted and strenuous. If you’re one of these people who are spending their first holiday season alone this year, here are a few strategies you can try to make the situation a little easier. DON’T HOLD YOURSELF TO THE USUAL STANDARDS. One of the best things about spending the holidays alone is that you can do things your way. You don’t have to worry about meeting everyone else’s standards. Instead, you only have to make yourself happy. Simply telling yourself that you are
not going to have the usual holiday environment can slightly help, but redefining what the holiday means to you can remove a huge weight. Trying new things or looking toward the future are great ways to reduce the stress of spending the holidays alone. Keeping up with old traditions may remind you of what you’re missing out on, so it can greatly help to create your own traditions. PLAN AHEAD. If you know in advance that you’re going to be spending the holidays alone, planning ahead can prevent negative feelings. While being spontaneous can sometimes keep things fresh, it could leave you with a feeling of hopelessness about what to do next. There’s no need for your list to be extensive or highly detailed, but even
just planning to watch a movie or cook some of your favorite dishes can give you something to look forward to. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Just because you’re not seeing people during the holidays does not mean you should forgo your basic needs. Stick to your regular hygiene habits and do not let them get away from you. The same goes for eating and sleeping. Staying clean, well-fed, and well-rested goes a long way toward improving your happiness.
As with all mental health advice, what works for some does not work for everyone. Do what you think will work best for you and help you keep your thoughts happy. 2 725-867-8495 | WWW.CLAGGETTLAW.COM | WORKERS’ COMPENSATION AND PERSONAL INJURY
