Somethings + Nothings: October 28, 2016
The Williams family is coming from New Jersey to visit us in Southern California this week and other than stuffing them full of dinner on Friday night after their arrival and a hopefully good night sleep in a hotel, we'll be loading them into a car and shuttling them five hours North to spend Halloween weekend in a cabin in Big Sur. It's partly to show them the beauty of coastal California, and partly an excuse for me to sneak away to my favorite place for 48 hours. We will definitely be stopping for a tour at the Hearst Castle (something I've never done), maybe sneaking in a bite at Nepenthe, and possibly indulging ourselves in caffeine and pastry at one of the two SLO branches of Scout Coffee. Hope everyone is having a good Halloween weekend, near and far.
