Beach Trip

A week or so ago Mike surprised me with a trip to the BEACH!
 

I love it...probably in part because I'm not bothered nearly as much by allergies when we are near the ocean.

I love the sound, the smell, the beauty and yes, even the sand.   



  







Sunrise in Santa Cruz

 

Beach and trees in Carmel.

And dinner in Monterey.

It was a refreshing break from our in-land location.  Especially because it was unseasonably warm at home that weekend.
