I think those of us who grew up around the coast always think of the ocean and beaches as any excellent place to get away from it all. Don't you agree?Mary Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08077077785157768787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728987043673829071.post-6454829269916272262008-10-09T09:49:00.000-07:002008-10-09T09:49:00.000-07:00Mary, that last shot is wonderful.

When I brought my husband out to California on vacation we were at a stop sign in the country and some CA Quail trotted alongside the road.
