Horsing Around

Here are some more photos from our mini-break last weekend.  The first two are of the Kern River.  It's pretty low at this time of year but in the summer it swells and becomes a popular spot for tubing. 

 

 

We met some friendly horses at a corral at one of the trail heads near the cabin.  I would've brought treats for them had I known they'd be so friendly. 

One of the gates we came across during our morning hike.  Mind you, this gate was made of wire and a stick...but we made sure to close it just in case the horses decided to wander up the hill.

Winter Sunset

 

Here are some photos from last weekend's beach excursion.  It was amazing to see how the sunset bathed the landscape with a golden glow.

Winter Warmer

This weekend's weather in Southern California was nothing short of amazing!  Even after living here for 5 years, I still seem to forget that it doesn't really get cold by the beach.  Yesterday, my boyfriend and I visited Founder's Park in Rancho Palos Verdes.  It's a little park that cuts right by the Trump National Golf Course and includes a rocky, dog-friendly beach.  It's also a great spot if you like to explore tidepools.

Here are some photos from our outing...

 

More to come tomorrow....
