To celebrate my 35th year on this planet, that wonderful husband of mine brought me back to my happy place. A handful of days spent lounging by the pool, wandering around town, eating really good food, drinking and jenga at a tiki bar, exploring Joshua Tree, and driving around my favorite mid-century neighborhood seeing some serious dream houses. It couldn't have been better, and it was the trip that made me realize my adventures with California are just beginning again. We arrived back to Seattle after eleven p.m. to a windy rain storm. It was depressing, but SeaTac was playing Temple of the Dog when we got off the plane, and I was instantly okay with being home.
