before i leave for my next deployment my wife and i took a one week vacation. we decided to drive the PCH (pacific coast highway) we started at halfmoon bay just below sanfran and ended in santa barbara. we also hit gilroy on the way to halfmoon bay. i stopped in all of the antique shops i could. stopped in gilroy, santa cruz, monterey, cambria, cayucos, san luis obispo, arroyo grande, los alamos, solvang, then santa barbara. for anyonewho hasnt dont it i suggest u do. its an awesome drive with so much to see. the nicest drive was around big sur. it was so fun to come home and open up everything i had bought. it was like christmas cuz i had forgotten about some of the things.

santa cruz: i think i got the straight razor travel box, the tin blade safe, the 342 montblanc, the old type, and the avon chevy truck full of deep woods i found at a flea market
monterey: atra D4 and the fuller brush with he clear handle
carmel: went to the carmel drug store and bought TOBS creams and AS, col conk, EJ best badger, and gem blades. went to bittner pen shop where they showed me how my montblanc works and then i drooled over all ther nice pens, but only bought the private reserve ink in ebony blue. also went to carmel pipe shop and bought a new duca carlo pipe and the point lobos tobacco. first time buying a pipe and tobacco so im looking forward to smokin it.
