In late March, our Heritage Circle group enjoyed an amazing weekend in rustic Cambria for our annual getaway. We stayed at the picturesque El Colibri Boutique Hotel & Spa in downtown Cambria, where we participated in their nightly wine and cheese tastings. On Friday evening, our rowdy group of 17 squeezed into Madeline’s Restaurant and Wine Shop for a sumptuous French-inspired feast and fine wines. According to the staff at Madeline’s, we were one of the biggest groups they’ve ever seated!
We were also allowed to peek inside the Castle wine cellar and private vaults, where we saw statues, furs, carpets, and other objects belonging to the family.
HSJ Board Member and Heritage Circle Member, Kathleen Orlenko, who has been a Conservator to the Castle for over ten years, then took us on an exclusive tour of the Archives, where we were shown some of the original hand-drawn prints of the architecture of the Castle by none other than architect Julia Morgan.
