My son wants to live there someday. I thought he was crazy until I visited last year. It’s beautiful and I had the best Italian food ever. Go figure!

Not a spectacular vista but when you find a spectacular vegetarian restaurant with lots of gluten free options for my son with celiacs, you gotta share! Julia’s in Pacific Grove CA made a quick stop in Monterey feel like a special moment.

My wife managed to get this photo of the passing Christmas parade in Santa Barbara, and the inside of our favorite restaurant there, Los Agaves. I told my wife I would eat my hat if we could get a table during the parade. Apparently guacamole makes everything better…

I love that the reflection can confuse the eye and force the viewer to look harder at the image and begin to appreciate the contours of the hills and the contours of the water line. It reminds me of a print my wife bought me nearly thirty years ago of “our” place in Pt Reyes on Tomales Bay.

Thank you! We just bought our plane tickets to Bangor, ME. The Bay of Fundy Coastal Drive is a definite, so I’ll have to see how everything aligns. I would love to see the Fundy Tides and I’m sure my wife would love to see Cape Enrage. We have several prints depicting lighthouses. Here is one…

Sadly, Bidwell Mansion in Chico, CA was consumed by fire last night. Maybe arson. It’s a gut punch to a proud little city who treasured the house that was in the heart of their community.

Not exotic, but we recommend the Hyatt House in Santa Clara when in the Bay Area…on weekends. Convenient to SF, East Bay, and Santa Cruz and the weekend rates are reasonable. Also we have an adult son with Downs who loves the nearby Chipotle!
