Birthday Trip, final part

In some newspaper I read about a new donut place in Redlands, which serves an unusual selection (e.g., orange blossom, miso caramel banana). I was tempted by the carrot cake donut

In the end I had my favorite, an old fashioned, and D. had vanilla.

From there we cycled the same route. It was less drizzly but still hard to get good views. After showering and packing up we drove to campus to walk around. 


We enjoyed walking around, but did wonder if students cycle, walk, or use transit to get to town. Or maybe they just stay on campus?




We did not take a tour of the most famous house in town

"time takes all but memories"

but thoroughly explored the grounds.

We drove by a few more houses on the way to lunch. We were too late for the orange season but bought some local avocados.



There was a pop-up bakery serving a hot lunch and there were three little libraries to explore while waiting for our lunch.
I am not sure why I chose this, but it made me smile.

The whole weekend made me smile! I love taking tiny vacations that are not too far from home.
