Catalina is a magical place for sure. I have been going there every year for the past 5 summers to help my sister with her shop. It's officially my favorite place in California, and quite honestly the ONLY place in California I'd ever move back to, if I had to. But I always gain a greater appreciation for my home state of Texas everytime I go.
