7-photo photomerge of Santa Barbara (December 2013)
I’ve spent much of my 52+ years on the planet in California. I was born there. I’ve lived near the border for more than the last 20 years. 1988 is the only year that I spent zero time in California (as I was in Japan the entire year). In 2020 I spent less than one day in California. That was for a brief hiking excursion in the Trinity Alps.
Hopefully, 2021 will be better, but so far I have no plans to venture into California this year.
Father’s Day is coming…
Santa Barbara surfing with dad
…and let’s be honest. If your dad didn’t take you surfing, on a regular basis, when you were a kid, you didn’t have a very good dad.

Ryan is a senior in high school this year so we have been touring campuses for a few years now. He has pretty much narrowed down his choices to a couple of schools in Oregon (which he has also been accepted into). But while in Santa Barbara, why not check one of the few universities situated next to a beach?
You can’t really see the UCSB buildings on the campus in this photo although they are just to the right. The UCSB Lagoon is literally a stone’s throw from where I took this. Ryan can be seen walking in the upper right portion of this image.
