This was unfortunately the day we decided to drive down the coast because the rains were non-stop. We stopped at Nepenthe for lunch because of the excellent views but after looking at the menu and recording ourselves and the waiter, delightful views to be sure, this was all we could see outside. Fortunately, the french fries artichokes hot sauce and sandwiches prepared us for the dessert menu which was studied and discussed with Jane who posed with me as Suzanne and Ben posed and then we began the treacherous ride through heavier rains, rock slides, fog, ... all of the things you don't want on that road until we got to Cambria. Once settled in Cambria, we headed to the West End Bar and Grill and studied the menus with televisions in all directions and this martini helped me to forget the drive as Suzanne had her wine and we ate our various meals though this soup seems to not have agreed with Jane even as the sandwiches served the rest of us well.
