On Saturday, July 9, Laura and I packed up books, food, my laptop, her collage materials, and our poetry book manuscripts and headed to Cambria where we took up residence in Poppy Cottage |
| After sitting an hour and a half in a traffic jam in Marina caused by the motorcycle races at Laguna Seca, we were overjoyed to finally head down River Road, along Highway 101, eventually arriving at Moonstone Beach around 1:30 p.m. |

After a delicious lunch and a stiff cocktail apiece, we picked up the keys and got settled in at Poppy Cottage in the pines. Here we spent five days hiking, taking photos, writing, working on our manuscripts, watching movies, and cooking each other fabulous breakfasts and dinners. |
| Each day we would pack a picnic, grab our cameras and notebooks, and head off for another adventure. On Thursday, Laura returned to Carmel Valley and Ollie arrived with our two little hounds, Pepper and Zoe. This web site records our daily hikes in a series of slide shows. Enjoy! |
