I did the driving, Lorri was with me of course and Michelle Loon joined us for the trip. We were going to cover as many shops as possible because there were 11 in this route. The object is to go to the shop have a quick look, participate in a scavenger hunt and move to the next store. Reality- two artists, beads, beads, beads and more beads. There was so much eye candy, can you get in and get out? Not really. But you know what, thats ok!! It was all for fun and that was the most important part!! We did cover 6 stores which took around 5-6 hours.
By our 3rd stop we were hungry. Next door to one shop was Slakerz slider bar. You want a good slider, go here. The fries were cajon flavored or even garlic rosemary!! Oh, so good!!
Our final stop was in Julian, that was a big goal because there we can get pie and ice cream at the Julian Pie Co. That is the best way to finish a fun day!! It was a great experiance. I liked being the chaufuer along with 2 navigators. Everyone had fun out and about and we did actually see parts of the county I have never seen so that was very nice. That makes for day trips to other spots in the county. I look forward to that!! Now below I will list all the links to the shops and other stops made for the hop..

I loved doing this! The best thing is having the book with the list of all the bead shops all over California so we can visit each of them over time.
