Cambria Vaca
My mom and I went on a road trip up to Cambria about 5 or so years ago and I just fell in love with the place. I had such good memories there that I convinced Rene to go up there with me a few years later. This was our fourth trip up there and it still stands, in my mind, as one of the most exceptional places in California.
We scored a room in the back of the Palms Motel. It opened up to this:


We sat out on those chairs and just instantly eased into relaxation.
Beautiful girl. She gets to sleep in the bed with us when we are on vacation. She digs it a lot.
We were checking out the baby elephant seals.

A while back, on Dia de Los Muertos (The Day of the Dead), Lilly, Rene, Jessie and I hopped on the Metro and headed into LA to check out some city life.
I love Union Station. It makes me feel like I have been transported back to the 20s. That and it reminds me of the night that Rene and I got stuck spending the night there while waiting for a 6:30am train. We slept with one eye open, but that's another story, for another day...
If you haven't been, get yourself on an eastbound Metro. It takes you all the way to Union Station and then the world's your oyster. Within walking distance is Olvera Street where you can sample all sorts of Mexican fair. Or, you can delve farther into LA because the public transportation can take you anywhere you want to go. It's awesome!

Delish! Rene was on a nonstop mission to track this place down.

Halloween '09 (Better Late Than Never)
We were going to join the Steeleys and Fam but all of the kiddoes seemed to be sick. My parents, I mean Dracula and the Wicked Witch, came out instead and we took Tinker Bell up to loot The Colonies. It was veeeeery fruitful. I highly recommend it to those looking to get a crud load of delicious treats.
