Out to visit ma grl, Karen! We headed straight to Santa Cruz (duh) and took Highway 1, through Big Sur, stopping at the Natural Bridges State Marine Reserve.

There are definite benefits to staying on a boat. This sunset being one of them, however, when it decides to hail, that shit is LOUD and alarming.

The trip would be incomplete without awkward photos.   *San Jose*

Goodbye, Pacific Ocean.
