Anniversary

Went and hung out in Santa Barbara a couple weekends ago for the 9 year anniversary. SB is a very pretty place... to bad more studios don't migrate there or to San Diego!

We stayed at the Montecito Inn, a really cute hotel built by Charlie Chaplin. Posters from his movies are all over the place, and you can ask to borrow any of his movies for free at the front desk.

We spent most of the next day at the Santa Barbara mission. I love old buildings, especially churches.

Back of the church had an old graveyard with several mausoleums (is that the right word for the above ground buildings?) Anyway, the door had obviously fallen off of one of the [empty] slots... nice and creepy. Tyler very obligingly tried to act vampirish for me.

And, of course, our customary "hold the camera out and take a picture together since no one else is around to take it for us" shot. Behind us is the beach we could walk to from the hotel. We spent some hours sitting on the sand reading and listening to ocean waves. Very peaceful until an overly excited dog ran over us.

the script isn't complete without the zealous dog...one's weekend isn't allowed to be THAT perfect.
