I am completely obsessed with California. I love it. One of my favorite things? Winter is sporadic. relative. an occasional phenomenon.
Take this weekend for example. 82 degrees.
Which meant a day trip to Half Moon Bay, which is just far enough from the East Bay to feel completely different, but close enough that it's refreshing, not exhausting. I love the random hot days in Winter, which keep you going through weeks of bad weather.
