Taking a little tour around the Monterey Bay ... first photo is a beautiful drive in the quaint town of Pacific Grove, second photo is the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and the third is of a small beach at Capitola by the Sea. The fog is here most mornings and then burns off before noon. Sunny most days but the wind can sometimes pick up in the afternoon and late in the day the fog might or might not roll back in but I can just about promise no rain in the summer. So grab your towel and sunblock!
It's finally here!! Yea for us Mary Ann!! Happy Summer! xo
ReplyDeleteJeane It begins now and doesn't end until late September ... enjoy! I love the light!
DeleteGreat photos! Back in the late 80s I lived in an attic apt. in an old Victorian on Beach Hill. My picture window overlooked the beach and bay with a view over to Monterey.
ReplyDeleteI know the neighborhood and yes, a great view! You could easily watch the weather come in and out!
DeleteAhhhhhh summer! It's cloudy and cool here today but still nice enough to walk along the beach. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteCarol, Yes, summer for sure ... today I'm sitting on the deck listening to birds and watching the bees and butterflies ... a simple but perfect afternoon!
Deletea beautiful place you live
ReplyDeleteYes, it is beautiful and has felt like home from the time I moved here. I'm especially enjoying the 'locals' price reductions and later in the fall the 'locals' specials. I think the fun is that people come here to have fun so the mood is generally good.
Deleteyou have captured the blueness of summer by the beach! lots of sky and water. quintessentially summer. yes to more light and warm breezes!
ReplyDeleteZDS, I've found I have to work very hard to take a bad photo of this area!
ReplyDeleteoh, you make me miss CA! a year ago we went back to San Diego, Santa Monica and did the Solvang, "Sideways" tour, what fun!! Enjoy your beautiful summer Mary Ann!!
ReplyDeleteGreat road trip ... Oh, those bakeries in Solvang!!
DeleteA little slice of heaven on earth, served up with just the right amount of sea salt!
ReplyDeleteWe had some pretty perfect days and took advantage of them with outdoor eating, harbor sitting and now its cool and wet. Nothing extreme but I know the tourists have warmer expectations ... I say, put on your sweatshirts and enjoy!
