The Monterey Peninsula Toy Box

	"In six days God created the heavens and the Earth. On the seventh He made the Monterey Peninsula." The Monterey Peninsula Toy Box is the brainchild of Mr. Toy, a native of Carmel. He is currently residing somewhere nearby. We think he's in Seaside, but nobody is really sure. Anyway, he welcomes his local neighbors along with those of you who are just passing through. Mr. Toy loves the Monterey Peninsula very much and he's here to share some of his insights, tidbits of knowledge, and have a little fun. Here and there Mr. Toy will also express some of his humble opinions. Please do not be alarmed. You are feel free to adopt or dismiss them as you see fit. Every effort is made to ensure that the information contained herein is accurate and up to date, but sometimes things change and it may take a little time before Mr. Toy catches on. But don't let that worry you. Most of what you find here has withstood the test of time and tyrants. So please take a moment to browse through the menu below and see what appeals. You're bound to find a few surprises along the way. If you ever get lost, just click on any cypress tree and we'll bring you in.	If you'd like, you may write to Mr. Toy himself.   He'll even write back.
