Harbor hopping along the West Coast

  • Our Bodega Bay view.

Tom’s our trip planner, and I usually just climb into the front seat and ask, “Where are we headed.” This time, for our annual drive up Highway 1 along the West Coast, he added a new trick: Harbor hopping.

Nothing better than a beach town

  • Morro Rock, the neck of a volcano, rises out of the bay.

I love a beach town.

And here, in Morro Bay, California, I’m in heaven.

Maybe it’s because I grew up in Hawaii, where every town is a beach town. Maybe it’s because I’m an old hippie at heart. Maybe it’s because sun and surf are natural de-stressors.

But I can just feel myself sigh when there is a dusting of sand across the road.
