These pictures include some we took on a day trip from Oceanside to San Diego and more from our drive from Oceanside, CA up to Oxnard, CA on the 22nd and others that we took moving on up the coast of CA to Paso Robles, CA. The area around Oxnard is an agricultrual area. This area is famous for its strawberries. They also produce lima beans here as well as other veggies. The area around Paso Robles is wine country. I know that we normally associate wine country with the Napa Valley near San Francisco, but this area is a huge wine producing area as well.
Notice the pictures of the huge flower beds (especially the one laid out like the US flag). These pictures were taken in Carlsbad, CA. Mike and I thought the flowers were tulips, but we were told by someone who have taken a tour of the gardens that they are something else. I can't remember what flower they are. The gardens were probably the size of four or five football fields. We just happened upon the gardens.
The pictures of the squirrels were taken at the marina in Oceanside. They are really tame because people feed them. The will come right up to you. The pictures of the boats were taken at the same marina.
We are now staying in an RV park called Wine Country RV in Paso Robles and it is so beautiful here that we went ahead and paid for a week. So, guess what we will be doing - visiting vineyards ---YES, YES, YES. There are a lot of golf courses here so I suspect Mike will be playing some golf as well. I hope to get out some fabric and cut out and piece a quilt top. I'll be taking some pictures while we are here and will post them in a few days.

Love the pics. Ben called and I told him you were in Oceanside. He said that is the most beautiful place with some great places to eat/drink. He said to say hello.
