California Edition 6: North Coast Culinary Caravan with the Clan
June 17 – July 5, 2021 The Northern California coast is remote, rugged, and beautiful.

It is at this point that the ocean sends the force…

California Edition 5: Monterey, Big Sur, and the Collector
June 15 – 17, 2021 Lysette likes to say I am a collector of things, to which I disagree. My position is that a serious collector of things would have lots of things, more like Fred Sanford of Sanford & Sons amount of things. A serious collector of things is way more disciplined and organized…
