A Weekend of Surprises, Indulgences and even a Shooting Star.


Oh and an earthquake too!

A weekend in Big Sur turns out to be one fun filled adventure after another.   More food than any one person should ever hope to enjoy, lots of fun-filled decadent adventures and the opportunity to meet some amazing new people.   Away from the bright lights of Los Angeles, we got to see the most amazing star filled sky.   Stars really do twinkle.  There’s something magical about sitting in a hammock and staring up at the stars.  The Traveling Hillbilly was actually lucky enough to see not one, but two shooting stars! 
Just as we are about to doze off on our last night in paradise, the room begins to shake, and shake and shake.  We are all too familiar with this and instantly know we are experiencing an earthquake.   It goes on for quite a bit but luckily no one was hurt.   It turns out to be about a 5.3 and was centered nearby.  We finally doze off, knowing we have an early morning and a long trip home tomorrow.

All in all it was a great weekend and one I’ll remember for quite some time.
