Sunrise, sunset...

Our California Days

This past weekend, Michael and I headed down to Orange County and visited with Derek and Nana. (Thanks to Kel and Dev for taking care of Koko!) As you can see, the ride home wasn't pretty. And yes, we've had more than our share of smoke here as of late ~ it certainly makes for an interesting sun and moon! When the smoke begins to clear though, we are treated to exquisite evenings such as the one we enjoyed tonight at the harbor.

What a difference a day makes...

See, it isn't always sunny here in Southern California. We took time out to check surf and walk along Shoreline Park with Koko yesterday morning and again today. The weather each morning was quite unlike the other. Yesterday, it was sunny, a little breezy... gorgeous following a night of light rain. Today, it was foggy and a bit on the cool side until the sun broke through in the late morn ~ still gorgeous, but different. Maybe we are into the fall season! Time to hunker down and get toasty by the fire...ahhh!
