Above is the Merc.. Right behind is the Community Theater where you can enjoy Ballet, classical music, pop and more.. Last summer I went to a celebration of the Beatles.. It was fantastic!
We took a break for lunch at my favorite Mexican cafe, Rosas Cantena
Fourth Street Antiques has always been my favorite shop on front street.. I was surprised to see that they have made a lot of changes to the inside yesterday.. I prefer the old way, but hey, not my shop..
In this shot I was trying to capture the black hot rod (bottom right)
One of two Garden shops on Front Street.. Beautiful pots and statues everywhere.
I wanted you to see the wooden sidewalk.. Years ago they were all this way, but over time they have replaced them.. Only a few left.
Well, that was our day, I hope you enjoyed the tour..

Hi, Penny
ReplyDeleteOh, I adore the city of Temecula. I haven't been there for about ten years as we live in Central CA. We went there for a special car show and the event was great, but a hassle broke out and the police came in and closed down the entire city that evening...and it had nothing to do with the car show! So it was quite a bummer to travel all that way and there was suppose to be a special bar-b-que.
There were even helicopter police and they rushed everybody out of the town. I think they over did their duty that night. I had never seen the police so mad! They were even arresting anyone who crossed them.
Oh well...maybe we'll make it there again at some point in time.
Thanks for posting the lovely photos and the information about the new stores too.

ReplyDeleteDenise, you are correct.. I am in Sun City, about 60 miles from you. What a small world.
DeletePenny, Penny......
ReplyDeleteI am in love. So much emotion here going on; I feel the hot California sun. I am not only remembering tons of days with my family, but that one particular day, four years ago, in OLDE ORANGE when I saw.......you.
This looks like a magical place that Ruben and I would love. Oh those pots, those SIDEWALKS! The Mexican café, the people, what a wonderful way to spend the day, and with your sister. I love your photos and I would LOVE to get a gander at that little viking shop! We have so many lovely people here of Scandinavian decent; I just adore them, their sensibilities and style.
GO TO NOWHERE!
Yes, I can still see your sweet smile when you saw me walking down the street to meet you.. I will treasure that always.
DeleteYou MUST, one day, come to Temecula..
There is a CHEESE FACTORY TOO!
It looks like a great trip !!..and a lovely day.....enjoy the week darling....love love love Ria...xxx..
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming shop! I think I'd like to discover that in person!
ReplyDeleteYou should make a trip... You would love it.. They have so many summer events in Old town..
DeleteThat is just the kind of place I would love to visit. I don't know where I would spend more money.. the antique shop or the garden supply. Anyway, I would leave with an empty wallet and lots of goods!
ReplyDeleteJeri,
DeleteYou know I did not spend a dime. Well, lunch, but that was it.. I have to control myself because I could spend all my pennies!
BEBE! Thanks for hiding the cheese from Red Sonya! WOW she is wild! I guess she never cleaned house for men folk before!!!!!! teehee
ReplyDeleteTeee heee... Are we having fun or what.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great little town. Looks like it would be a great place to visit. Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy you enjoyed!
DeleteOh so much fun!! Thanks for the tour of that lovely little town!! Is Temecula anywhere near Los Angeles? I loved in L.A. for about 6 months years ago and the name sounds so familiar...
ReplyDeleteI am from a small town, so I guess that's why I love them so...
Have a wonderful week..
XOXO

How funny is this... I was just over visiting you! I love the dolls you are making for the show. They are simply adorable!
DeleteThanks so much for visiting.. Temecula is about 95 miles south of LA.. I lived in Torrance most of my life. About 5 miles from Redondo Beach.
Good luck with the show Dessa Rae.
Love
Penny

Very nice post Penny! It looks like a fun place to visit. Thank you for visiting me. Charli and I are busy getting ready for Easter. It's only fifty degrees here but already Charli has spring fever. I miss my days of blogging and have even thought of starting another one. If I only had a name LOL I hope you and your family have a wonderful and blessed Easter! With the warmest of regards, Carol
