carmel, california
Today is the 20th anniversary of Clint Eastwood's election as mayor of Carmel, California. Which gives me an excuse to wax rhapsodic about what a lovely town it is. I spent a week there a while ago. At the beginning I thought it was just a cute town but kept asking myself what the big deal was. But I totally got it after a week strolling among bright gorgeous gardens, watching the Pacific crash on the rocks below my hillside room, driving along Big Sur, eating outdoors at least one meal every day, listening to terrific music, wandering through lovely stores and galleries and, best of all, watching the sun set over the main beach each evening.
