A Day Trip to Idyllwild, CA

We went to lunch in the center of town at La Casita. The food was great. There is much activity in the town. I was surprised. There are several restaurants, shops, coffee places and a small park. We picked up a pound of locally roasted coffee at Black Mountain Coffee Roaster and also tasted wine at Middle Ridge Winery.
One of the benefits of SoCal is that a thirty-minute drive can transport you to completely different scenery and weather. We came through Temecula. There is a point where a right turn takes you into the deserts of Palm Springs and a left takes you into the mountains of Idyllwild. We were there for a few hours, but it definitely felt like a mini-vacation.
