Daycation: Road Trip to Ventura

Today I took a daycation. A little needed R&R with my two boys, Tim (my husband) and our son, Jake. We took a nice drive on the 126 and joked about moving to the middle of nowhere as we passed gracious rolling hills with rows of crops growing for next season. Once we got to the ocean we decided to drive to C-street beach (California Street) and found that the annual "Aloha" day was happening. We were lucky to find a parking spot and then spent the afternoon strolling along the beach path, looking at vendors, parasailing surfers (apparently all the rage), and hula dancers practicing their moves before going on stage. All in all, a very pleasant day!
