Even though I have lived in San Diego my entire life, I have not ever spent much time in Coronado, in fact if not for a few of the kids soccer games and some kind of top producers weekend with Home Funding...I would say I have spent no time here. Coronado has a kind of small town Mayberry feel, mixed in with a Beverly Hills at the beach feel, mixed in with a military town feel. Yesterday Amber came down and we went to breakfast at a place called Clayton's Coffee Shop (pic), a old time diner that was founded in 1941...and other that the prices being higher (Wed they have 5 cent coffee for the military), not much has changed there. As I continue to explore this "island paradise" (it's not really an island), I find it kinda funny that I am preparing to sail away to explore distant shores, and this cool little place was right under my nose. But it's NOT really an island.
