little pink houses



We took a road trip and this is where we went. Lots of painted houses by the sea.

yes, they really are this wonderful in Pacific Grove, California

Lover's cove, a good place to picnic and swim after.

There was shopping too. This is Tancredi and Morgen in Carmel Valley.  Marsha, the creative genius behind this shop makes the scarves and designs clothes, does displays that make you see things in a whole new way.

My friend Gwyneth, isn't she darling? An accomplished painter who shows her paintings at Tancredi and Morgen~

Gallerying in Carmel

Two whole mornings were spent at the Montery Bay Aquarium. You can get very close to the birds. I did and developed a crush on this oystercatcher. Who wouldn't?

Another crush, this time on a sea turtle.

           Its crowded there!

We saw the hundred year moon Saturday night coming home from dinner.!

Tancredi and Morgen Milestone Party

This is part of my order for the Tancredi and Morgen show on Saturday, November 10th from ten to five. They are celebrating twenty years in business in Carmel Valley, and as fans of the shop know, its a destination worth driving all day for. Rodger is as steady and knowing as an African Elephant, and when I think of Marsha, I think of bounty. She designs clothes, rooms, crowns, pillows, and her display ability is unmatched. Marsha and Rodger offered me my first opportunity for a one woman show, and I've been returning with my wares every since, for twenty years. When I walk inside, I always hold my breath, drink in the beauty of finely made fabrics, worn french stoneware, piles of remarkable books, American craft and especially the vision of Marsha and Rodger, who have created this wonderful place for us to be. Hope to see you there!
