Memorial Day Weekend doings in Big Sur

So much going on, it is hard to know where to begin. I try to stay only with non-profits, but HML does such a great job of getting their info out, I usually don’t add to their outreach. Check their site, as they have LOTS going on this weekend! However, send me an email if you know of a non-commercial enterprise you want to promote this week-end.

Our Big Sur Library is having a fund-raiser: May 28, 29 & 30 – Annual “Friends of the Big Sur Library” Book and Bake Sale, Saturday, Sunday, & Monday, May 28, 29 & 30, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Peruse a huge selection of donated/used books (from all genres) and sample delicious homemade baked goods (for purchase) fresh from the ovens of Big Sur pastry maestros. All proceeds go to supporting the operation of Monterey County’s only free public library in Big Sur. This is a free event. The Big Sur Library is located on Highway 1 at the Ripplewood Resort in Big Sur. (831) 667-2537.

  • The library always puts on a great do. Crowds, fabulous books, friends. I just hung out my huge American flag over The Hawks Perch Gallery reciting the old Barbara Fritchie poem, ("Shoot if you must this old gray head but not my county's flag! she said") and it's waving beautifully in the breeze. Lots of happy campers here, we're filling up, screw the landslides, the detours, and the one lanes. Happy Memorial Day!

  • What is the url for HML? Remember the fallen this weekend. Many thanks for a great blog.
