The "Toy Trip" album is a new selection of photos from our 2009 Road Trip up and down the Pacific Coast.  I applied a Tilt-Shift technique in editing to give these particular photos the look and feel of toy models.  During the trip my brother showed me some examples he had seen and I thought I would give it a try with some of the scenes we photographed.

Our trip was a 10-day romp from San Diego to Whidbey Island in Washington via I-5, with stays in San Jose CA and Eugene OR visiting relatives, and a stop at the Capitol in Salem OR.  After a couple days in Oak Harbor WA we spent a day in Seattle WA, stayed in Olympia WA and toured the Capitol, went to The Grotto in Portland and headed to the Oregon Coast.  We stayed in Waldport OR on the 101, and then made our way to Marysville CA to visit relatives.  After a tour of the Sacramento CA Capitol and a meetup with a distant cousin, we made it to my brother's home in Fresno CA.  Redondo Beach CA the next day for a friend's birthday party and a trip to my grandparents' old neighborhood, and then home.

Rancho Bernardo has a large community street fair in the Town Center every year.  Community clubs and groups perform on the center stage all day, there is a kid play section, a Cultural Art Center, and of course booth after booth of wares and information on business, political and cultural groups, medical practices, etc.

This Memorial Day Weekend event is turning into a true heritage tradition in Rancho Bernardo.  The third annual pancake breakfast was held in honor of our veterans on Saturday May 23 2009 at the Bernardo Winery in San Diego's North County.
