Hello Everyone,
Happy Easter and Spring Celebration to everyone! This is so my favorite time of the year. Today it is cool, foggy, and cloudy with thunder storms on the way but the pale, yellow poppies are waiting to open up again as soon as the Sun shine returns ... here in Southern California that means only a short time away.
We plan to go to the beautiful San Juan Capistrano for the weekend to be at the Mission and do Easter Dinner at the Train Depot Restaurant. Even if it does rain, the whole area will be a delight with so many flowers and trees in bloom along with the smell of Honeysuckle and Orange blossoms.
It will also be a perfect time to do a photo shoot for a new book we are working on about Spanish architecture along the coast. We will do a little antique shopping too because we are giving the apartment a fresh new look for spring. We hope to find a chandelier for the living-room, an "Aubusson" type rug and a vanity bench for the bathroom.
If it is too stormy, we will take a drive along the coast through Dana Point, Laguna Beach, Corona Del Mar, Monarch Bay, and Newport Beach. It is as wonderful as it sounds. Most of the sea-side cliffs will be covered with heavenly scarlet blooms of ice-plant, or glorious wildflowers, or even geraniums of pink, white and magenta. Sail boats might just be sailing, and even wind surfers with their rainbow colored sails and matching wet suits skimming along the sparkle glass sea water. Both Swallows and Monarch butterflies will also meander in and out of the coastal skies. We will indeed celebrate all this natural wonder.
So I hope you will have a fabulous celebration too ... a time to enjoy a renewal of life! Happy Easter and Spring to everyone.
