Sister-cation, II - Cambria, CA


As promised - a pictorial of the "sister-cation" last weekend up the coast. It was so relaxing we are still feeling the effects! If only we'd come home with a sea glass haul... Oh well - next trip for sure!!

The Paso Robles photos are from our first stop en route. It's the perfect way to break up a four hour journey!

Hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend - Happy Monday friends and followers!

Do you ever feel like you're being watched?

First order of business - the Antique Mall! 
(This is the display case where I bought all those fabulous collars last year seen in this post)

Can you believe after scouring three levels I didn't buy a thing? It sure was fun to look...

gardens at Heart's Ease

pot-pourie and herbs inside the shop

(We've done every tour of William Randolph Hearst's Castle, but if you haven't I highly recommend!)

Whenever possible, you know how I like to end with dessert!

Ciao mes amis! Have a great week!
