we are in the little cabins in carmel-by-the-sea. actually we're in carmel proper, i think. it is one of those dumb arbitrary distinctions that separates the rich folks from riff-raff like ourselves. it's lovely. we are in the cabin i've admired every time we come here because it is the one that's off on its own on the edge of a field. we lay in a hammock looking at the stars and i saw four shooting stars and two satellites. there are many, many frogs and crickets. we watched sunset over the lone cypress from a white sand beach with giant pale green waves filled with little silhouetted surfers crashing in front of us. i swam for an hour. apparently the u.s. open is happening this weekend, that is up the road from here but we have not seen anyone famous. we're going to try to find hot springs in big sur tomorrow. chad instigated the overnight, which is a miracle. that we even went for a drive is a miracle. missing birthdays and antiques but i am very happy. xoxo.
