Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

The Opening
This empty storefront used to be a bar that I've only known as the Smokehouse. I never thought about asking what it was really called. The other day, the husband and I were walking by the building and noticed an opening in the window. So, of course I had to peek.

Want a clue? It's in the photo. He-he.
Okay, here's your answer. For where you are, that is.

Shop Locally: The Locker Room
The Locker Room is located at 441 San Benito Street, between Fourth and Fifth Streets. I just had to take a photo of its divine mannequin.

Fourth Street Mural
This mural is so obviously there that I tend to forget about it. I don't know why. It's a beautiful mural, rather magical and mystical.
How about you? How many times have you waited at the traffic light or driven by this mural and not noticed it? Did you know that it wraps around the building into the small parking lot behind it?
