At one time, years ago, I contacted one of the few thatchers to check on having my roof thatched. It's still a dream of mine.

One of my comments on a walk along the streets was that it would be difficult to live there because of all the people looking inside the houses.<br /><br />I took a picture of that last shop the last time we were in Carmel. The entire town is cute!!! Did you know that the houses don't have street numbers? They simply have names.<br /><br />When you and John visit Carmel, I suggest L'Auberge and tell them it's your birthday. It was actually my birthday last year when we stayed there. There was champagne waiting for us in our darling attic room along with a birthday card signed by the staff. Every room has fabulous caramels and I had to buy extras. A limo was part of the service so we rode in style to a fabulous restaurant, but we walked back because we had eaten way too much.<br /><br />The reason I told you all this is because once you are in Carmel, you need to keep driving south and visit our funky little beach town. The guest room is ready and I suggest January when it is miserably cold for you in Canada. January is generally a warm, sunny month. But, they are predicting an El Niño year as crazy at the 1997 one so maybe you should wait until February.Art and Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070124859845536964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-19285041291482620512015-10-13T08:03:08.264-07:002015-10-13T08:03:08.264-07:00When we lived in Monterey years ago we would drive...When we lived in Monterey years ago we would drive through the lovely Carmel to enjoy the unique homes there then lunch at some charming place!

When they moved in a lot of their furniture had to be dismantled and reassembled especially the beds and wardrobes as they couldn't get them up the stairs!
