Carmel California Move

May 27th 2010

Alivia Kay Shaw's 2nd Birthday...

Scott and Danna's 33rd Wedding Anniversary...

and the day we move into our incredible new home in Carmel California.

Dreams really do come true. Scott and I have been coming to the Monterrey Peninsula for the past 18 years. We fell in love with Carmel the first time we strolled down the quaint 4 block shopping district. It felt as if we had entered another realm of reality.

Carmel with it's European Tuscan Village feel is beautifully preserved from bright lights, stop lights, overhead wires, neon signs and corporate big box stores. The streets are lined with art gallery's bakery's, coffee shops, and 4 star restaurants. They say there are more high quality chefs in Carmel per capita than any where in the world. I believe it!

Carmel has it all, gorgeous white sandy beachs, (voted the cleanest beach in California)! World Class Golf, the US Open will be held in Pebble Beach in June! Exquisite shopping district, day spa's, cool weather all summer long, and a gazillion types of flowers and trees.

Theater, Arts, Golfing, Shopping, Spas, Aquarium, Ocean, Beach's, Sea Life, Freshest Fish, Salads, and local grown everything, including some mighty fine wines.

Today May 27th 2010, 18 years after the first seed of desire was planted to find a way to live in Carmel California, we did it!!

Burns Cowboy Shop Carmel California will be opening June 10th, Braydan, Wayland, Matt, Jake and Dan will head out June 1st to do the build out of the new store, just in time for the doors to be opened for the US Open.

Living the Dream in Paradise,

Danna
