monterey 2013

 

Last week we took our winter trip to Monterey where we visited our favorite haunts. The poison oak at Point Lobos was starting to leaf out and was looking exceptionally healthy. I guess the lack of rainfall has not been a problem. Asilomar offers winter special rates and we took advantage of them. The weather was beautiful, and our dinner at Passionfish in Pacific Grove was outstanding. We were relieved to find our favorite used bookstore had not closed, but had been sold, and was up and running under a new owner. We were very restrained, only one book came home with us. It was a pleasant break, but we are both itching for more than a weekend away.
