Today was our first day in California. We pushed hard Monday to get to San Diego and stayed right near the beach. The cooler weather and nice sea air was a welcome improvement to the oppressive heat of Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. After a quiet night we turned in early, and we left the air conditioning off for the first time on our trip. In the morning we headed north to Los Angeles to Pick up Mark at Long Beach airport. The I-405 was a little rough, but as L.A. goes, not bad. After Mark was safely on board we headed for the coastal highway. The views were amazing and it was great to just sit back and enjoy the ride after almost 2,000 miles in three days. We found a nice turn off of the highway and went down to the beach to take pictures and feel the sand between our toes. California is so beautiful and it really makes you appreciate how large and varied our country really is. The driving was the most enjoyable of our trip so far and we finally meandered our way to Pismo Beach and found an RV park right on the water for tonight. Both Mike and I are really enjoying having Mark with us and we're looking forward to a great ride up the coast from here!

Captivating seagull coverage there, honey. I was mesmerized beyond belief! Hello to Mark! What beautiful scenery. I am jealous to see you all wearing sweatshirts, we are just plain sweating here at 103 degrees! Keep 'em on the straight and narrow, Mark (ha, good luck with those two)!
