Come, I invite you to peek into my California experience.

Daisy Says: When your heart meets nature it remembers Peace.

Headed out of San Francisco leaving behind a cold 55 degree, damp foggy afternoon. Pointing our car south we enjoyed a sweet ride on the scenic Pacific Coast Highway 1.

Beautiful ocean view. I can see why many fall in love with this colorful state.
If I were to live here, I could definitely see me turning into a surfer girl. The ocean views and waves are AMAZING!

As we headed south the temperature warmed up somewhere up to the mid 70’s in Santa Cruz; the clouds ripped away revealing wonderful blue skies. As evening set in on our journey a few more miles south and the skies became cloudy. We veered off exit Munras Street in Monterey, California to locate lodging for the night.

After taking an evening walk, I can see why this quaint quiet town would attract writers and poets. I sensed a peaceful ancient mariners energy as I waked the enchanting streets. Above picture is of brass inlay markers that proudly decorated the sidewalk.

Daisy Says: Take a walk and allow yourself to become enchanted.

Came out here to meet with a member from The Helpful Hands Foundation and host an educational workshop for the community.
It’s so amazing, watching the sunrise in Florida and then six hours later…. having breakfast on the west coast in California.

Temperature in Los Angeles California was as high and dry at 111 degrees…. Caliente!

Drove into Bakersfield California and it was sooo odd to see oil derricks in front of businesses and on the side of roads.

Took the above picture in front of the Four Points Sheraton Hotel where we stayed.
Tomorrow we’ll head up to Sequoia National Park and hang out with the great redwood trees and splash in the Kaweah River.

Daisy Says: Enjoy the beauty around you.
