We probably won’t take a vacation until May, so I’ve been drooling over my vacation photos. These are a few I took in California last year. I miss the fresh sea air, the farm-to-table restaurants and the blending of architecture, art, and landscape found at the Getty Museum. I hope to visit again soon.

Doesn’t Venus look fresh?
Which is your favorite? Where would you like to go?

These are just gorgeous! Great idea to re-visit this trip. What a beauty and wonder the Pacific Ocean is. If I could go anywhere right this moment, it would be to California. I think to Monterrey. The beach, cliffs, and Big Sur State Park sound heavenly. 🙂

It’s cooler up there, but gorgeous! I especially loved Carmel-by-the-sea with all their Hobbit-like homes…
Thanks Angelia! That means a lot coming from you! 🙂

Would love to be on any white sand beach south of Tampa. The more deserted the better…., just the water, the breeze, the sun, the sand, and me ! 🙂

Me too! There is something about the waves crashing that’s so soothing. 🙂 I hope you get to your beach sometime in 2015!

I just noticed our lilacs are going to bloom. It’s waaaaaay too early! Yikes! We could get two feet of snow next week. It has been a warm winter. I’m looking forward to summer and a nice relaxing vacation!
Thanks Phil!

Venus has California boobs. Figures.
I want to go barefoot in the surf. That all looks beautiful. This may sound terrible, but I also can’t help but think that surf would feel better after a nice, long, 4 or 5 hour bicycle ride along the coast.

That doesn’t sound terrible at all! A welcome reward after a good workout.
I love Venus’s boobs especially since mine are totally fake after boobectomies… 🙂
