Visiting Sherman Library and Gardens in Corona del Mar - Fun Things to do in Orange Country

Last week I met a good friend for lunch at the Sherman Library & Gardens in Corona del Mar. 

 

I can't believe how many times I have passed by this beautiful place and always wondered what was behind its entrance on Pacific Coast Highway and was too busy or distracted to stop!

If you haven't visited, it is time to grab a friend and have lunch there also. You won't be disappointed!

 

It and is the perfect place for all ages. The Gardens provide a museum of living plants, displayed amidst a setting of immaculate gardens, patios and conservatories linked together by wide brick walkways, beds blooming with seasonal flowers and bubbling tile fountains.

A Sunny Saturday January Garage Sale Morning in Laguna Beach, CA

It is a beautiful sunny Saturday garage sale morning after a few days of heavy rain in Laguna Beach where I feel very fortunate to reside. So hopping out of bed and hitting the sales early is something I look forward to, especially on a gorgeous day like this.

The family at my first stop was moving to Northern California and selling their 1920's beach cottage, so they had motivation to sell their treasures.

 I am very excited to have purchased this beautiful mahogany leaded glass door for my new selling spot at "The Barn" in San Juan Capistrano.

I will be opening my spot there on Februaury 1, in less than 2 weeks. I will be filling you in on "The Barn" and highlighting my space and others who are already there for those of you who live close or are planning a visit.
