Santa Barbara State Beach

View of the Harbor
The only day we had in Santa Barbara, my sister took all of us to State Beach, where we walked down the boardwalk to the very end and look at the scenery around this area. It was a very beautiful day and very windy.
I was not into taking photos of people, but just a few snaps here and there of my JoJo for keepsakes. My sisters, however, took lots of photos of us, but I'm not permitted to show them on my blog, nor do I wanted to invade their personal preferences.

View of State Beach
Everywhere I turned, I saw a different view, and they were all amazing. I love watching my son running around and being so happy. It made my tired trip worth that much more to take. He loves being by the sea, and many times has asked me to move to California.

Sorry to say, but we have another seven years to go before the shackles could fall off. In the meantime, having a bit of vacation now and then is so very good for the soul.

Joining Macro Monday, and Mosaic Monday!!

  11. He's getting so big, Icy. My son is about the same age as JoJo and he's now about 5' 9". They grow up so fast, but as you said, it's lovely to watch them having fun.

  20. I think everyone is a lover of the harbors along the coasts. I have never been to the west coast but have spent a lot of time on the east coast and Gulf of Mexico. A very joyful post and I took much joy in your sharing. Blessings
