California provided beautiful scenery and gorgeous weather throughout our 75th birthday celebration. The drive down Highway 1 with two of my favorite people (Debbie and Libby) in the whole world was a wonderful way to begin.

At putting this together, I’m high above the Earth’s surface somewhere between Dallas, Texas and Monterey, California. We departed Erath at 4: a.m. to leave Lafayette at 5:30. After a two-hour layover in Dallas, we are on our way to Carmel by the Sea, California.
We are now in Napa, and The Meridional is using a repeat that I know you will still enjoy. Good recipes.
Wine tasting is a hard job, much harder than gathering recipes and sharing my life secrets with you.
