California Trip

the state of sunshine

Blue skies, warm temperatures, and a sense of home. 

Yes, I am a native of California. She was good to me while I paid a visit.  

We can not forget about Hollywood...

beach vans, pelicans, and surf boards.

Retro boulevard signs...

the sculptor trying to get noticed: art on display. 

Back at the hotel, I was inspired to create this tiny pocket to hold stamps along with a letter a wrote to my Son who is deployed overseas.  

Feel in love with this imprint, which caught my eye on the sidewalk, entering this cafe/restaurant The Stage Cafe 

Amazing gate entrance, right? 

As my trip there to California was to see my specialist, dentist, and eye doctor... 

I still made the best of it. 

Got to visit with my youngest daughter. We had a old fashion "girl sleep-over night" 

with a movie, late night chatting, ice cream, popcorn, and of coarse chocolate! 

Took a few evening strolls, because it was 89 degrees at 9:30 pm. 

I feel less pain, my illnesses are more manageable...in the warm dry climate. 

Time to get back home, 

there was something very special await! 

I can not wait to share...
