I went off to Home Depot to pick up a few things as we getting prepared for a wedding with various events adn guests at our house next week. What a shock!! I am SOOO not ready for this. How about you? And then there's this. Looks like a Modernist painting, I guess. But while picking up some garden mulch it started raining. RAIN. In So Cal in early Fall? SOOO out of character. And then it rained HARD for a couple of minutes about 30 minutes later. Fortunately I at least had my phone camera, despite the inferior quality. A real  shock for the eyes on Friday in Carlsbad. ********************************                  Subscribe in a reader If I can provide more information about Carlsbad real estate and surrounding areas, or the housing market in general, or otherwise assist you in your ...

The Boathouses in Encinitas are located at 732 3rd Street and are perhaps the most photographed landmark in town.  My husband and I used to live next door to these homes and would enjoy sitting on the steps and watching cars come to a halt in front of these landmarks and watching the tourists stare in amazement.  Some wonder.....are they boats that someone has retired and made into homes?  Well, the answer is "no".  They were built as homes and have never seen water except for the rain. Miles Minor Kellogg was a resident of Encinitas back in the 1920's and he would always be there when a building was being torn down or unused materials were discarded and he would construct a building using the scraps that he would find.  When Miles found out the Bathhouse at Moonlight Beach was being d...
