(16 photos in gallery) Kat took an afternoon off work last week to join me in a spontaneous visit to Oak Glen, with its clear mountain air offering some of the best medicine for any ailment! We first had lunch at a favorite spot, (Riley’s Farm) Hawk’s Head Publick House, with its Revolutionary War era […]

Happy 2 year Anniversary to us!
Kat and I first launched our “Everything Southern California” blog on WordPress Sept 1, 2013. We’ve since published over 570 posts, and uploaded over 4200 images. We’ve been busy bees, no doubt. As our blogging partnership transitioned last year, with Kat venturing off on her own, I continued my adventures and shared those times with […]
Beautiful Black Bird
This gorgeous bird, which may be some sort of duck (?), was resting in the Japanese garden pond at the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens. I cropped the photo in very closely so you could see that his eyes nearly look like jewels! If anyone knows what sort of bird this is, please let me […]
Through the Archway

Weekly Photo Challenge: Beneath Your Feet, 2
As a second entry into this Weekly Photo Challenge, Beneath Your Feet, I chose the soft sand and incoming tide at Catalina Island, experienced during my recent birthday visit there. ~SueBee
Weekly Photo Challenge: Beneath Your Feet, 1
For this Weekly Photo Challenge, Beneath Your Feet, I chose this flight of stairs (the Mattachine Steps) leading very steeply down to Silver Lake, near downtown Los Angeles. It was imperative that my eyes stay focused beneath my feet or risk a fast tumble to the bottom! ~SueBee
A Cambria State of Mind, part 6
This is where my mind is today. I think it’s a great place to have one’s mind!! 🙂 ~SueBee
Weekly Photo Challenge: Inspiration
My immediate choice for this Weekly Photo Challenge: Inspiration is…. rocks! I’m inspired by rocks. Some might think I have rocks in my head, considering my current obsession… and perhaps I do. They’re everywhere in my home at the moment: au naturale, painted, stacked. During my recent vacation to Cambria, just a few days after […]
A Cambria State of Mind, part 5
I can’t seem to run out of shots I took in Cambria during my recent vacation. I hope you don’t mind a running theme! ~SueBee
A Cambria State of Mind, part 4
Continuing my series on Cambria, with photos taken during my recent visit to that gorgeous Central California village, and area. ~SueBee
Weekly Photo Challenge: Close Up
Providing a colorful entry to this Weekly Photo Challenge: Close Up, is a brilliant red poison oak (don’t touch!), joined by some sort of moss and lichen that covered many of the trees at Fiscalini Ranch Preserve in Cambria. I enjoyed walking the forest trail on my way to the ocean side bluffs during my recent […]
Birthday Trip to Catalina
I spent a most delightful day at the little town of Avalon on Catalina Island this past Tuesday, July 21st. It was my birthday, and I therefore enjoyed the benefit of free round-trip passage on the Catalina Express out of Long Beach, California. Kat joined me on the 8:30am trip, with my oldest daughter, Angelika, […]
A Cambria State of Mind, part 3
(10 photos in gallery) More randomly-chosen photos from my recent vacation in Cambria, up the coast to Central California, an area less populated and with great natural beauty. Cambria, where the pines meet the sea… ~SueBee
A Cambria State of Mind, part 2
I hope you don’t mind that I spare the words while I share my Cambria State of Mind photos. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves! ~SueBee
A Cambria State of Mind, part 1
(8 photos in gallery) As I mentioned in a post a few days ago, I was up the coast in the quaint village of Cambria, and surrounding area, for a very much needed vacation last week. I took many pictures (understatement). I’ve decided rather than trying to share them in order or by category, I’m […]
Pelican Landing
Daily Foto Fix of a pelican landing was taken at Cambria during my recent vacation. ~SueBee
Sunset at Cambria
During my (longest in ages!) 4 day vacation at Cambria on California’s central coast, I took nearly 1000 pictures. My fellow photographers can relate, I’m sure. The natural beauty of the area was staggering, hence the continual click click click of my camera. I enjoyed my solo get-away, without internet or television, with much time […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Door, 2
A second entry to Weekly Photo Challenge: Door, is the Door to Eternal Happiness (as per a local resident’s explanation). I took this picture while hiking this week near Fiscalini Ranch Preserve in Cambria, on California’s central coast, just a bit outside of my usual Southern California. I realize another week has gone by and […]
