artist colony
I have been in San Diego for 2 weeks so have missed all your blogging. Have to read it and catch up. Just saw this though and was very jealous. I wanted to find this type of thing when I was there and buy a piece of art; a painting but it was cold and rainy and there were no artists anywhere where we thought they might be. Just too wet!! Meanwhile I saw your comment about the trains. Wow, Ilana went on little jaunts everywhere but I know she didn't pay those prices; she had no money; I will have to ask her how she travelled. Sounds like you are having a wonderful trip. Keep enjoying, need I say that, no!!!!!!!
