Paso Robles/ Hearst Castle/Coastline



Hank & I had a wonderful picnic along beach, then we watched the Elephant Seals bathe in the sun and throw sand on each other.


Can you imagine the famous movies stars that sat around this pool. Clark Gable, Linburg, Garbo, Bob Hope. The pool looked like it belonged in Rome.

We drove about 25miles to the Hearst Castle, sitting on top of this mountain. Randall purchased 400k acres, all the way down to the coast. The tour took us through the house, the bungalos, the indoor pool, the outdoor pool and the gorgeous gardens.

Paso Robles is another Wine Country, just like Napa Valley but not as old. Grapes are everywhere. We were driving through the valley and a hot air balloon almost landed right in front of us.This is a really nice place we are staying with horses on the side, mountains all around and vineyards next door. We can walk to the tasting area!
