Central Coast, Death Valley, and oh the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks

Updated: Sep 2

Ya, that's right, I'm an Elk. On April 18 I completed my initiation into the order so ya....I'm an Elk. Now I can camp at Elk'clubs not to mention meals, refreshments, etc...

I haven't felt like writing. I've just been enjoying the journey. Not that writing prevents me from enjoyment, it's quite the contrary. However, it needs to be natural, not forced. If it feels forced move on until it doesn't.

Since my last post, I've relished my time with friends and incredible beauty. From my time on the central coast to Death Valley, a beautiful drive through the super-bloom on the way through Tehachapi, back to Refugio State Beach near Santa Barbara, Napa Valley, Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, and currently the lost coast of California specifically Shelter Cove. If you've been there, you know. It's incredible.

Portia and I are doing well visiting with old friends, making new friends, hiking, swimming, and appreciating. Below are a few pics of Death Valley, Three Rivers near Visalia, Refugio State Beach, Santa Barbara, and Pismo Beach. My next post will have Napa, Healdsburg/Santa Rosa, and Shelter Cove.
