We are off to Altadena this morning, for a little dinner party to mark John's 70th and Marie's 60th birthdays – both just past. Leesaah is hostessing; a couple of Marie's friends will be there, as well as the usual LA-area family members.
On Sunday John and I will drive northward, to one of the last unspoiled little beach towns on our coast, Cayucos – situated at the north end of Morro Bay and the beginning of the Big Sur. The hamlet has an old but serviceable hotel right on the water's edge, and one of the finest restaurants anywhere on the California coast, Hoppe's Garden Bistro – where we'll have dinner Sunday evening to celebrate the eve of my dear one's landmark birthday. On the natal day, we hope to make our leisurely way up that spectacular Highway 1 to Boulder Creek.
So by the evening of October 5th we should be gratefully back at home.

Sounds wonderful! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to John and Marie!
Love the bits where you take the blue highways, that will be great.
