winter by the sea.

Right now I am still basking in a blissful hiatus and enjoying quality time with my family before it is back at the grind with work next week.  I always love winters in southern California because although a white Christmas may be a wondrous childhood dream, mild weather always takes the cake. While coasting down the PCH we came upon this secluded gem called Crystal Cove. Private beach, canyons lined with trails and dotted with sunny vegetation, and cliffs washed anew by the Pacific Ocean--all the picturesque aspects of nature that really tug at my heart strings. Hope you all have an absolutely wonderful reminder of the holiday season, and that this coming new year will truly be your best yet. Love you all.
