2007: John & Nicole One Year Wedding Anniversary

Has it truly been a year since that surreal day in 2006 when I was desperately trying to get a wedding license on the *day* of my wedding, when the only wedding license office that was open was down in San Diego? Yes, and as soon as Nicolette and I got to the front of the line, the office was closed due to a bomb threat. How did we not go insane? And how did we arrive at our own wedding only an hour late?

Our original scheme for our anniversary weekend was to spend it in Las Vegas, at our honeymoon hotel The South Pointe (nee The South Coast). Somehow the room prices went from ridiculously cheap to out-of-reach in only one year. Instead we went to Julian up in the mountains behind San Diego. At the tail end of our honeymoon last year we took a trip to Julian and ate at the Julian Grille. We chose that restaurant specifically because it had the strongest air conditioning. It turned out to be very good so it was our first stop on our anniversary trip.
