(9 yummy photos) How about a slice of cake to start your day?! These are photos I took while visiting the Orange County Fair recently. If the goodies taste as good as they look, they’re all winners in my book. ~SueBee
Tram to Mount San Jacinto
I joined Kat and her new husband, Cameron, for what I’d personally call a very challenging hike this past Saturday. We took the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, and then hiked a fairly steep trail through a pine forest at high altitude. I pasted some information from the tram website below for those interested. If you’re […]
Left or Right
This seagull and I had quite the conversation during my recent visit to La Jolla near San Diego. He was insistent I tell him whether his left or right profile was more photogenic. Honestly, I couldn’t decide… my focus was on his adorable knobby knees and overlapping feet. 🙂 What do you think? ~SueBee
Point Loma Lighthouse
This gallery features a little tour of the Point Loma Lighthouse on the tip of the peninsula at San Diego. I imagine it was a lonely place way back in the day, but certainly not these days. It was quite the tourist hot spot while I was there. ~SueBee
View from Point Loma
I took this picture from near the lighthouse at Point Loma in San Diego. It was a gorgeous day with nice fluffy clouds off in the distance. ~SueBee
The Golden Hour at La Jolla
The sun moving closer to the horizon at day’s end lends the most gorgeous lighting that photographers dub the Golden Hour. It was a glorious one at La Jolla during my visit last Friday. ~SueBee
Watchgull

Three Sailboats
Today’s Foto Fix is one I took yesterday while visiting the city of San Diego for some kayaking and sightseeing. This picture was taken from the Cabrillo National Monument on the tip of the Point Loma peninsula. It was a spectacularly beautiful day and I have lots more pictures to share… coming up soon! ~SueBee
Fair Food
(11 photos) The County Fair has a reputation for crazy food, but it seems this year was even crazier than my last visit…the word food should be used lightly! Wandering around the food booths, I must admit not having had a clue what to buy for my dinner. I ended up with a corn dog on a […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Satisfaction
My choice for the Weekly Photo Challenge on the word Satisfaction was taken at the Orange County Fair. This entry, entered in the youth category, must have brought that girl or boy much satisfaction when seeing their gigantic lemon on display. It’s HUGE! ~SueBee
Racing Pigs at the Fair
(19 photos) I’d never before seen pigs race, but I can now mark that off my bucket list! The Orange County Fair is the place to go if you want to have this experience – it’s a crowd pleaser for sure! ~SueBee
It’s Fair Time!
Summertime = County Fair Time. Today’s Foto Fix was taken three years ago while at the Orange County Fair. It’s Friday everyone, enjoy your day. I surely will because after work, I’m going to the Fair! ~SueBee
Cocktails and Paradise on Catalina
(9 photos) If you’ve been following my last couple blog posts, you’ll notice I spent a fabulous birthday on Catalina this past Friday. The photos in this gallery give a taste of the spectacular weather and vibrant island life Kat and I experienced. We hiked, kayaked, ate, and drank so that by the time our […]
Hiking Catalina’s Garden to Sky Trail
(12 Photos) When Kat and I arrived at Catalina Island this past Friday, our first order of business was breakfast. Directly thereafter, we caught the city bus for a ride up the hill to the Wrigley Memorial Gardens and Mausoleum. We were pleasantly surprised to discover a birthday freebie, my admission was comped. We wandered […]
Kayaking at Catalina Island
(14 photos) For the past four years I’ve made a tradition of visiting Southern California’s Catalina Island on my birthday. The reason behind this is a special deal from Catalina Express, one of the boat companies running trips between the mainland and the island, offering free passage to folks on their birthday when accompanied by […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Unusual 2
(5 photos) I have a second entry into this week’s Photo Challenge of something Unusual. While visiting Southern California’s seaside town of Carlsbad with my mom, I was fascinated by this guy paddling a surfboard with a fishing pole on his back and what looked like regular clothing. As he paddled into shore and got […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Unusual
This week’s Photo Challenge is Unusual, or at least we’re to show a picture of something we find unusual. I’m submitting a picture I took while out with my mom on a Sunday afternoon drive through the seaside town of Carlsbad a couple years ago. We both did double-takes when seeing this man leading his […]
Welcome to the California Cottage
Happy Friday, everyone! Today’s Foto Fix features a wall mural I spotted while wandering down Seal Beach’s Main Street the other evening. ~SueBee
Weekly Photo Challenge: Collage
I’m entering the Weekly Photo Challenge, Collage, with a picture I took at the Brewery Artwalk in downtown Los Angeles. The numbered sock draped over the top really sets it off, don’t you think? ~SueBee
Half Empty, Half Full
This wine glass, or the work week, half done or not? I’ll look to the bright side of the work week and say it’s nearly half done. For the wine, well, the glass is still half full and at the time I was relaxed, enjoying myself. This photo was taken at Oak Glen outside of […]
