Idyllwild

This past weekend the Mrs. and I drove up to the loverly mountain community of Idyllwild for a romantic anniversary getaway. We stayed at the Creekstone Inn - a rustic, yet swank structure with nice views of Tahquitz peak -







We had great weather on Saturday as we strolled (hiked...) around town and visited a few of the nature spots in the area like the petroglyphs just a stone's throw (groan...) from our room.



Sunday was hit with fog, rain and then hail as we sat and ate at the Red Kettle.



It was 38ยบ with a nice wind to blow the chill right through you, I didn't bring much in the way of cold weather gear, so I suffered a bit waiting outside for a table, Laurie OTOH had the brains to buy a nice Pea coat from Penny's and brought that along. We ran into a co-worker of mine there and chatted a bit, we had also run into a customer of Laurie's from the restaurant the night before at dinner. Strange meeting people you know in far flung places...

Happy Anniversary!

Wow, that place looks really cool!

Now I'm gonna have to find me a nice boyfriend to take me there :)

Sounds like a great weekend, glad you kids had fun.
