Montana de Oro

California hiking is amazing, especially at Montana de Oro! We traveled north of San Luis Obispo about 12 miles along the PCH back to the coastline. Imagine a coastline lined with beautiful rugged cliffs, coastal plains, secluded sandy beaches, grassy canyons and hills! It is heavenly and enchanting! The park is a huge area to explore with many worn trails, a few campgrounds, and just satiated with natural beauty! We hiked the 1,347 Valencia Peak, following a 2 mile trail in the hills overlooking the ocean. The crashing roar of the ocean was captivating in such a quiet and secluded space. The views along the trail and at the peak were purely delicious. I have always wanted to hike along a path on the peaks of mountains or hills, and we did! The vastness of the ocean and the depths of the hills that were surrounding us were so invigorating! We are so thankful for the ability to enjoy and experience more of the beautiful earth created by the hand of our Great God and Father!

Lately

We have reached the end of the week and things have been going well. Julia has to work two 12 hour shifts. Today and tomorrow. She just got done going through training both yesterday and the day before. I have been fairly busy with work and I have another project to work on down here for another company. I will have to wait and see how that project pans out...

Last weekend we went to Santa Barbara. It was a lot of fun and busy. We went to the beach, strolled State street and went out to a Mexican restaurant. We were with Seth, Sarah, Katie and Bobby (Seth and Sarah's friends) Everyone had a great time and we had some of the best Mexican food ever! That's saying a lot because Julia and I eat Mexican about 5-7 days a week! Well thats all for now, we love you guys. hope all is well.

JJ's birthday bash

What fun we had this thursday! It was like Julia had 3 birthdays
because she woke up 3 different times throughout the day. (she worked the night before) Tonight we went to a farmers market in the
beautiful town of SLO and got lots of fresh fruits and vegetables,
including blood oranges! Then Julia and i went out to Thai food at a
beautiful place called the 'Thai Palace' After that we went to a
familiar cafe known as 'uptown espresso' I remembered seeing it in
Seattle cause it's logo uses the dubonet man pouring himself a cup of
coffee rather than a glass of wine! Now we are going to watch the
island!! alright.

Fun on Julz's birthday!

We love CALI!

Jeremy and I just walked in the door of our little condo from a pleasant walk on the beach! It is sunny, warm, beautiful, and the sound of the ocean waves crashing on the shores is glorious! Living in California is definitely wonderful and life couldn't be better than it is in Pismo Beach! It is refreshing to live in a place that comes somewhat close to the way it will be in heaven! We walk to the beach every morning, afternoon, and evening! Basically we eat all our meals on the beach... the sunsets by the way are gorgeous! Jeremy is able to work at our condo, with a view of the beach just out the window. And the hospital I am at is about 10 minutes away; it is small, friendly, and always busy of course!

Valentines day!

Its our first v-day together. wow! Julia is sleeping right now like a princess. Tonight we are gonna go stroll the beach and watch the sunset before she heads off to work! I guess you could say its gonna be real special.

Arriving

It was just 4 days ago that we arrived and we are still getting aquanted! it has been a lot of fun so far walking around and exploring the area. Our place is nice but the nicest part about it is the location. We are literally less than 50ft away from where the sand starts and bare foot walking begins!
