WALKING MY WAYS. For years, I have claimed that the best viewing corner, in Carmel-by-the-Sea, is Fifth and San Carlos. Where one can see everything, from the workers of CARMEL CARES, Strollers, and Tourists. to Cars braking, or not braking, for stop signs. But recently, I found another endearing spot. Mission and 7th. Right in front of RISE AND ROAM. Where one can see innumerable people, run in and out of the bakery. Park in front of it. Park in the garage, next door. Or shriek, meet, greet and
