Okay. this is kinda late, last night we stayed in Salinas, CA.. a friend's house.. that was after a very long drive fron Grants Pass Oregon.

They have a very nice house.. had dinner and beers with Dennis, name of the husband.. first time I met, so I would say I got a new friend..lol.. we had good chat with them until 12 midnight, catching up some stuff..

Wednesday morning, we head over to Monterey Wharf (bayside) and had breakfast at Loulou's... very good food.. love it and so stuffed. we took a walk along the shore but the sea water still freezing, not good.

Then start driving to Sacramento.. along the way, we bought some pickled garlic then shop at my favorite outlet mall, Gilroy.. awesome sauce!

then drove again... 'til next..
