Coffee Art
Have I mentioned that while home in Humboldt County, I stay away from the "popular" coffee bars in favor of the beautiful coffee art and friendly customer service of the local Jitter Bean.

Restoration
June 1, 2017
I took a drive through Trinidad to check on the lighthouse today and found this. I am so glad to see someone is trying to save the lighthouse! I have been trying to find out who is responsible for the restoration, but haven't come across anything yet. I'll keep looking and asking around and will let you know!

In the meantime, read more about the Trinidad Memorial Lighthouse

Letterbox

A retro mailbox seen as we were checking out of our hotel.
It was a short trip this time, but served it's purpose. We didn't do a lot of gambling but did do a lot of sun soaking and warming.
I'm glad we spent time in the heat because last night(June 10) it was in the 40s and the heat was kicking on....
Gotta love temperate climates!
(right YaYa? :-)

Ed and I saw Criss Angel's Magic Show on our last night in Vegas...by mistake.
When we bought tickets, we thought it was more Cirque de Soliel...
It turned out to be like hanging out with one of the type of Jersey Attitude guys I went to high school with...
Criss Angel's magic is so-so, but his attitude is pure Jersey/Long Island and gave me more than a few giggles!

Traffic Stop

 Heading to Sacramento Airport we travel over the mountains where they are still clearing landslides from the rainy winter. This leads to mountain 
"Traffic Jams".  We left early to avoid the stress of being late and really enjoyed getting "stuck in traffic"!
