Love Like A Sunset

Quite the winter it's been so far, to say the least. A daily average of a perfect 72 degrees. Oh, California... how you thrill me. Being able to tan in January? I must say, all of us on this side of the coast are truly spoiled. Along with the brilliant weather, the sunsets seen off the cliffs of Isla Vista lately have been spectacular. Breathtaking even. I've been making it a point to try and watch the array of colors that paint a gradient of pinks, purples, oranges, and reds against a cool blue backdrop every evening. Sometimes I forget the earth is spinning and watching the sunset is a pleasant reminder of our planet's constant rotation, a pretty amazing fact in itself. These photos don't even begin to capture the grandeur of the sight I am so lucky to experience on a daily basis. Along with the crisp air, the gentle roar of the ocean waves, and the silhouette's of playful dogs or paddlers in the distance, I couldn't ask for more from my humble backyard.
