Dedicate this day of rest to art and antiques. But best to start at Dawn’s Delectable­s with baked goods juicy enough to put you back onto gluten. The Rectangle Gallery turned a main-street storefront into an open- space co- op for local artists to display their works. (Artist Abigail Gary’s paintings manage to make a forest service road look hauntingly beautiful.) Apart from the tattoo parlours, Elks Lodge and the beauty college, Tower Street is a veritable antique row. But these aren’t just your grandmothe­r’s doilies: one store specialize­s in military uniforms, high school yearbooks and Aloha shirts, all in impressive quantities.

When it finally reopens, the Fox Theatre will be a movie- going experience to rival anything else north of Hollywood. Pair that with dinner at La Tarasca, reputed to be the best Mexican north of California, and you’ve got yourself a date night to cap off the weekend.— M.T.
