Steve and I were fortunate to get to spend a couple of days walking around Carmel. Here are a few of the reasons I love this beautiful town...

Charming stone chimneys.
Wonderful stone window details.

overgrown with flowers.
Weathered wood arbors,
draped in Clematis,

Charming garage doors next to beautiful gates.
Charming garage doors with window boxes.
Secret stone stairways that lead to...
secret bridges...
that lead to...
secret gardens.
