California is a great place to live – I can’t believe it’s November and it’s still warm enough (for a reasonable person) to go kayaking. The pictures below were taken just last weekend in Santa Barbara, when the temperatures were in the 70s. Maybe those of you in the tropics are not that impressed by our sunny weather, but keep in mind that people are also snowboarding and skiing in the same state. OK fine, it’s a big state.

Stearns Wharf is a main attraction in Santa Barbara. There was a kayaking tour group out that day.

Santa Barbara is a nice beachy town and has a number of fishing boats parked at its marina. We went looking for some seafood and found it at Brophy Brothers. Oysters, ceviche, mahi mahi, shrimp, crab – all in one meal. The place was lively.
