My sister sends out a family newsletter every week.  This last week she asked each of us to finish the statement, "I wish".  Other than wishing I were in Oregon holding my new niece the first thing I thought about was, "I wish I were on a getaway with just my husband".  Of course at the moment I already had a few ideas and one consisted of packing the above and going to the English countryside.  
The above is Lime Wood, a boutique country house hotel in England.  It is set in the heart of New Forest National Park, just an hour and half drive from London.  I would actually welcome the chance of precipitation that is so common in those parts.
