Two of nature’s most profound forms of expression came together during the July 18 th to July 20 th Art in Bloom show at The Spanish Village. The presentation matched floral arrangements with paintings to create a masterful display of coordinated color. Each artist attempted to make a connection between the two formats to brighten your home and better manage open space. Prices were reasonable and focused on middle class buyers.

Visitors stroll the coastal area to keep themselves busy exploring both the businesses and the sights. In San Diego there are many coves and inlets that rise up like towers from the ocean floor. Birds of varying species hang off cliffs making nests and scanning food. They have become accustomed to the tourists and keep only a few arms lengths distance.  Sand trails and walking bridges connect each of the peninsulas together. Visitors can find a smooth walk in search of sea lions, gazing at the ocean or watching kayaks paddle their way into the bay. Mostly people just like the breeze and weather which is more than a few degrees cooler on the coast than inland.  Unique restaurants dot the area. They range from eclectic seaside cra
