  My hubby and I spent the weekend bicycling around Monterey and Pacific Grove last weekend.   We parked our car on Lighthouse Avenue across the street from Pacific Grove Antiques. Lately I have been talking about building a grotto for my religious statues and treasures and stumbling upon this amazing shop sealed the deal. Apparently the owner, Marilyn, who is not Catholic, is completely obsessed with Catholic saints, relics, and religious items as you'll see. There was unlimited inspiration and awe inspiring displays every where I turned. I kept thinking I wish my mom were here to see this! Often we will go into a shop where the vintage religious statues are misidentified. She will take great pride in letting them know who a particular saint is.  I always tease her that she could start a saint identification business! Most of us can identify the popular saints like my patron saint...
