Sep 14, 2011 - Day 3 CA Beaches
today like yesterday it was very trying to get to these places because nothing is in a straight line...even though we've lived here several years, the signs are confusing, not at all or misleading from a map... and camping is non-existing, many are just camps for migrant workers...BUT "we're movin' on up" today's visits were pacific beach known as PB, mt soledad cross, and la jolla beach... https://picasaweb.google.com/100196596721661983107/Day3PbMtSolLajolla# ron & bebe for our tech friends places we...

It was too beautiful of a day to stay home so this time it was to the Self Reliance Mediation Gardens just north to the San Elijo Reserve. We spent a pleasant couple of yours meandering the manicured, lush gardens on the cliffs above the popular surfing Swami's beach in Encinitas.

Jan 5, 2006 - Victorville, ca
We came into victorville and stayed at a nice park on a lake. I had campfires and saw many birds, some racoons and a skunk. We drove from there into San Diego to the zoo.
