FOLLOWING LUXURY & WHO NEEDS A MAP

THE LUXURY MARKET

     Louis Vuitton has drawn attention for their embrace of viral and whimsical marketing tools.  Clearly an upscale product that goes beyond the needs of simple utility, Vuitton is out with a new sales piece that may set a trend.

        It's a creative play, and as we used to say in the days of 

American Bandstand, it's got a nice beat.

WANDERING BACK ROADS

     Driving around in the Paso Robles appellation is a 

pleasure unto itself. Evidence here why this is called
the "American Provence."

POST CARDS FROM THE DESERT

PALM SPRINGS

PALM DESERT

     100 now and still going up.  The pool beckons.  It's mid 60's back in Cambria.  Lana, who sometimes believes Cambria can be chilly, is lamenting how the heat "just knocks it out of her." 

       I didn't like the sweltering heat in humid climates, but the warmth here is entirely different.  Stay hydrated, in a pool, shade or AC and you can enjoy the almost magical light

of the sun splashing over the mountains and desert.
