So I figured what better day to share some things with you.
Lots of lists are make in a lifetime...to-do lists, wish lists, shopping lists, Forbes list (just saying) and personsinally 27 things to see, do, be. This list started in high school for an assinigment about 3 dreams. It ws my favorite paper I ever wrote, archived along with my college are history finals. It grew when I graduated high school to 20 and upon graduating college sits proudly at my favorite number 27. I have a list of 27 dreams. Keep in mind, I was a strugling art student working full time, pilling up college loans. I had yet to see the ocean or fly on a plane so I was truly dreaming big.
Last month I checked off one my of my dreams, to drive the Pacific Highway. It was amazing. If you've done this you know, if you haven't do! Along the way I stopped at Crystal Cove and waited for the sun to set. You know there was a soundtrack which you'll lovingly find the link and songs below:)
Before you ask what are my other 26 dreams, well some of them are checked off, like baking the best chocolate chip cookies and living where I can see the stars. A sampling of some fun dreams, photograph the Convent of St. Nickolas, knitting baby outfits for every grandchild, and winning a blue ribbon for a pie recipe.
Now for other awesome happenings in Cali...
Riding bikes around San Fran and over the Golden Gate Bridge, eating at Epic with a Bay Bridge view, visiting SFMOMA, seeing the moon over Napa Valley at Auberge du Soleil, enjoying the sunset at Lauga
One more fun thing of the day of October 27th, Amy and Brent's wedding on Lucky Me:)

(10.27.09 @ 02:41 PM)Clary, your so cute :) Makes me happy that you enjoyed Cali...glad I was able to share a margarita with you there!
(10.27.09 @ 03:08 PM)Great pics! My husband and I spent a week in San Fran and Napa for our 1 year anniversary last year and the bike ride around SF and across the GGB was one of my favorite parts.
(10.27.09 @ 03:32 PM)Looks like we had similar vacations this year! ;) But darn it if we didn't get to bike the Golden Gate...maybe next time. I too loved the Pacific Highway and can still smell the air. PS - Love me some Ray LaMontagne! Great choices in music & travel!
(10.27.09 @ 03:47 PM)You're adorable my friend! I need to find my life list...I think it's packed away in our trunk. PS I love Spoon, Radiohead and Arcade Fire! Great list!
(10.27.09 @ 06:37 PM)Love these! They are gorgeous!
(10.27.09 @ 10:07 PM)These are so fun, and what a great idea for a dream list. Might have to incorporate that one somehow in my future plans. ;) Love the photo of you driving, and the ones at Crystal Cove - amazing!

(10.28.09 @ 04:58 AM)Clary you are all too cute!!! Love the pics! Thanks for sharing!!!
(10.28.09 @ 07:48 AM)Your so cute. You have inspired me to make a written list. We all have them in our heads but I have never wrote one out. Hmm...now where do I begin...
(10.28.09 @ 09:17 AM)I tried that braid thing the other day, and it just didn't work out for me. I don't get it. haha
(10.28.09 @ 10:57 AM)(It looked so cute in your hair at your Oct. 3rd wedding I second shot with you.) :)
To each and every one of you that want to write a list, find a list, make a list. Do it!! You will be amazed!
Trish-you are too funny, advice-don't look in a mirror when braiding, it gets confusing:)
(10.28.09 @ 04:13 PM)Amazing pics, Clary! I love California and the Pacific Coast Highway. San Fran is one of my favorite cities and Andy & I got actually got engaged on the beach in Santa Cruz =)
(10.28.09 @ 07:49 PM)I just want say that i love your work! ;)
(10.29.09 @ 01:42 PM)Okay, I really can't believe (despite you sending me the link) that it took me this long to pour over your playlist on this trip. OMG YOU LOVE CHARLIE MARS TOO?!!!! Darkside is definitely one of my fave songs of the year. I got to see him when he opened for my fave artist, Griffin House, back in February here and have found him adorable ever since.
And having just been in SoCal where I too got to drive down the PCH and see the surfers surfing and the waves crashing and the candy-colored skies and thought, IS THIS REAL?!!! I can TOTALLY see why you have a list of 27 goals with that being one of them ;)
PS - Ironically, Wake Up was playing SO much on the radios out in LA. I think it's funny Arcade Fire has been around forever and suddenly, a movie about a kid named Max comes out with that song attached and everyone's listening ;)
(10.30.09 @ 08:08 AM)awesome playlist!!!!
(11.03.09 @ 11:54 PM)Thanks for sharing some of your dreams ...
very inspiring! :)
