We ended up getting a fairly late start today, so we stayed fairly close to home, but we went to a beach that I had never been to before--Rincon--and it was so lovely (with free and easy parking too)! And before that, we stopped for lunch at Padaro Beach Grill which we always like. How fun is it that we had all the kids together today? Super fun.
To encourage myself along on this little project of seeing more of our area, I'm going to start a new series on the blog: "California Day Trip." Come join us!
(By the way--I just noticed that this is my 1111th post on the blog. Woot woot! That is a lot of posts!)

alright I have two confessions:
1)I checked out your pinterest board and found the "hey girl" category and couldn't stop laughing for at least an hour, totally wast of time worthy in my book...
and
2)I could only dream of a sunny beach that is sandy, we're still wrapped up in overcast dreary weather here in WA, and even then most the beaches are rocky...so yes please explore those gorgeous places and share :)
I have been loving your summer holiday posts, Mary Beth. Thought I'd say thanks for the inspiration to get out a bit more. I have great plans to do the same and we went to the beach at Frinton-on-Sea on Friday evening for a picnic. This being east coast England the wind was so strong we got sand blasted back to the camper van, where we enjoyed a sand-free meal!
And I see your pother comment is from my lovely cyber-friend Sarah!
You are making my home town look...not so great.
I'm jealous! Explore the beauty around you!
However, we are off to a canadian island today for a little getaway. Should be fun!
Happy 4th!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting, lovely ladies.
Sarah--yes! Hey Girl is hysterically funny, especially the crafting-oriented ones (there are also "crunchy mama" ones that are super funny as well). And best wishes on the sun coming out in WA soon! Cloudy weather can feel so "down" sometimes, huh?
Muffinmoon--thank you! Yeah, I get that about the wind at the beach. That is what prevents me from going more often. Yesterday was lovely and not windy so I am encouraged to try different beaches now. The beach in England sounds wonderfully romantic to me.
Tia--a Canadian island sounds fantastic! Enjoy!
We just got back from Carpinteria today and it was CROWDED!! I have never been to the beach you featured nor have I visited that grill. I think those are places on the list. . .can't wait to see more CA day trips!!! Thanks!
Peacework Designs--yeah, the beach continued to fill after we got there. It was actually fine for the most part . . . (not perfect but totally fine as long as we played down by the water). We want to take more of our daytrips on weekdays just for that reason, since we can.
Also, Padaro Beach Grill is great and I've never had trouble finding seating there because there are so many tables on the grass. Enjoy!
