May and June are the Months that most tours are held here in San Diego. My favorites are Coronado and Point Loma. My Husband was raised in Coronado.Every year we go to the Garden show and see who has won a coveted blue ribbon. All of the houses proudly display their ribbons in their front windows. We ride our bikes through the neighborhoods and just enjoy the view.It is so fun to see the older homes and especially great to see the older gardens in bloom. I have learned so much just seeing what plants look like after years of love and care. I always go home filled with new ideas for plant combinations as well as complete makeovers.Last year I was in Love with a garden that had a small greenhouse. I was so lucky to get one for my birthday. I feel blessed to be a San Diego native. I have to admit I don't know what it is like to have the 4 seasons we are spoiled here in San Diego with what seems like one season of gorgeous all year long.<br />Blessings<br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Pam<br /></span><br /><strong></strong>

The breeze in the summertime will be fabulous.<br />I think that it is funny how everyone always ends up in the kitchen at every party. Now everyone loves sitting at the window seat.We put drawers in the bottom of the window seat for storage.Pretty and practical too.<br />LOVELOVELOVE the new view, the contractor made a mistake and ordered the window bigger than was originally planned.How perfect it turned out after all.<br />Blessings<br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Pam</span>

It needed a little white paint of coarse. I could not figure out if it was going to work with the ginormous skylight (very 70's) which takes up the entire area above the kitchen island. It is fun to try and figure out what to hang, I know it is suppose to be lower to actually use it but I really just wanted another place to put cute treasures. The French bread basket and the enamelware strainers look right at home don't you think. I LOVELOVELOVE my kitchen. It is definatley the heart of our home.The view from the kitchen sink is of the Del Mar Polo fields. Hot Air Balloons fly right over the house.There is a window seat that looks out into the front yard and a birdbath I painted white too.<br />Blessings<br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Pam</span>

From Grandpa Al driving the shuttle to Cody and Cade hauling furniture and driving the van to Jim keeping the peace with the city and the neighbors it was definitely a family affair.The lemon orchard looked beautiful.It was a May day to be remembered.More highlights to come about the sale including pictures of the vendors and some of the amazing one of a kind treasures.These are pictures of the grove just before the sale started and everyone was getting ready.
