We are up at the orange grove in Ojai and I have limited internet reception. Therefore, I am sending you pictures of my day on a trip up to Santa Barbara, which is 25 miles northwest of Ojai.
Nothing great here, just a way to stay in touch and let you see the beautiful Pacific Ocean, one of my favorite places on the planet.
Here you go:
Ah…this view helps me to breathe deeper.

That white speck is a sailboat

Trader Joe’s in Santa Barbara, another favorite spot.

I am a published author of both short memoir and fiction, a two-time Pushcart nominee, a nationally award-winning writing coach, an editor, as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. In addition, I am the mother of three grown daughters of whom I am extremely proud, a grandmother of four darling children and the wife of a man I still love after 44 years.

Another wonderful place–definitely different from Texas. I know you’re enjoying it.

Yes, Mib. So different! We certainly enjoy the variety.
