Henry Miller Library

A few weeks ago Fred and I were in Big Sur and stopped by the Henry Miller Library. As part of one of the classes I'm taking (Intro to Library Studies) I had to visit a library and write a paper about it. The HML was amazing, a very spiritual place. We spent part of the visit watching a concert that was taking place on the grounds. What an amazing place to hold an event, I've even seen wedding blogs talk about holding the ceremony and reception there (seen here and here). It's not your traditional Library where you can check out books, this is a small community center/artist's retreat/performance space/coffeeshop/meditation space. Very fun, I wish we had more time to visit and hang out there. Definitely worth a trip back.

Lunch at Post Ranch Inn

Fred and I went with his parents to Post Ranch Inn for lunch last weekend. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. It was warm and sunny in Big Sur, no hint of fog until we drove further down the coast to see McWay Falls at Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park.
