Los Padres National Forest is finally green |

Over 3 days more than the annual average fell, turning the relatively calm Pacific Ocean into an angry wave making machine. On the outskirts of Santa Barbara Harbor is a place called "Fools Mooring" this is an area where people anchor their boats since there are no slips available inside the harbor. Unfortunately a few of the boat owners learned the hard lesson of how this area got its name when they came looking for their boats and found them beached on the shore all around the volleyball courts of East Beach. |

Dinner and campfire with friends |
and some radio controlled 4 wheelin' fun |
|||||||
The downside of California is that since the sun does shine most of the year, the rain levels are a bit low and the greenery is a bit sparse. Aside from a meadow full of clover and the wild mistletoe that grew in the trees above us there wasn't much green along the shoreline of the lake. Lucky for us our friends Step and Julio brought their radio controlled Jeep which turned the rocky ground around us into a playing field for the boys and their toy. After a bit of 4-wheelin fun we headed back to camp, set up the portable camp fire and bar-b-qued hamburgers for dinner. |
