It is with great sadness that we announce that our dear family member and friend, Brent "Big Sexy" Hill, passed away on Sunday, surrounded by his loving family.

His huge heart and even bigger smile will be missed immensely and The Bulldog will not be the same without him.

He was a major part of The Monterey community and was loved by every person he met.

We appreciate all your kind words and gestures and please continue to keep his amazing family and Christine in your thoughts.

Much love,
Susie and The Bulldog family

New multi-colored cardigans have arrived at Atomic 1800 Boutique! We're now carrying new sweaters and jackets for the whole family in a stunningly soft woven fabric. Visit us at 800 Lighthouse Avenue in New Monterey.

Because of the Monterey Bay Half Marathon on Sunday, November 10, there will be a number of parking restrictions, 2am-11am, and road closures, 3am-11am in Downtown Old Monterey and in the New Monterey and Cannery Row areas.

For a detailed guide of all parking restrictions and road closures in Monterey that morning, please click here. Information may also be downloaded below.

The entire Half Marathon course will be posted, "No Parking - Tow Away 2am-11am on Sunday, November 10, 2019." Other parking restrictions will also be in effect in the Downtown and Cannery Row areas. All "No Parking" areas will be posted a minimum of 48 hours in advance. All vehicles left standing in a "No Parking" zone will be towed at the owner's expense.

Nacho Bizness is now carrying Find Your CENTR CBD Beverage. A refreshing, lightly carbonated drink with notes of citrus, it's available in cans with 15mg or 30mg of CBD. Made simply with carbonated water, cane sugar, natural citrus flavor, lemon juice, and CBD, it only contains 40 calories per can (so you can eat more nachos). We're located at 615 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey.

Lilify now has a lovely collection of locally hand sewn aprons in stock at their shop at 281 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey.

The Etta crossover, open size, linen apron is created using a universally beloved pattern. Apron addicts love this piece, as it has no ties or buttons and big pockets.

Etta lovers in the shop continually requested a version that could also suit a man. So they extended the straps, lowered the pockets, made the garment longer, and added a waist tie. The Elliott is a unisex, utilitarian apron perfect for those desiring more coverage.

They also received many inquiries about whether their apron was suitable to wear out. Hence, they created a duster version with all the most beloved bits! The Willa features large pockets and similar symmetry to the Etta. It is a stunning layering piece, and they've found it's favored by teachers and makers.

We hope you get the opportunity to add one of these practical yet very pretty pieces to your personal closet.
