Friday, Friday, Friday!!!!
Currently the weather is 11 degrees and the mountains are finally getting hit hard with 5-10 inches of snow. Anyhow that is back home in Colorado and not in, arguably the most perfect town of La Jolla, California where the average annual temperature is 70.
If you aren't familiar with La Jolla, here are a few helpful facts to get you a little more aquatinted with this pleasant place. La Jolla is part of the city San Diego and is bordered by Pacific Beach. It originates from the Spanish word La Joya which translates to "the jewel". It has a population of nearly 47,000 and at one time was actually called home by Dr. Suess!
The reason behind our recent adventure here was to visit our friends Joe (my best man) and his lovely wife Allie. Presently, they reside about three blocks from the beach which can be accessed by a short, shoeless walk on Avenida De La Playa Drive. With such a prime location, the opportunity for activities were endless. Days consisting of paddle boarding, surfing, deep sea fishing, digging tunnels in the sand, mopeding downtown for rooftop yoga sessions, nature hikes and sunset walks on the beach with the pups definitely called for bottomless french pressed coffee! Activities surely consumed the majority of our day and made the time fly by. Nonetheless - Brit and I managed to habitually enjoy the local beach bar rightfully called "Shore Rider" to catch up on the world series, crazy election and somehow work a breezy 40 hours a week..... That was both of our hours combined but hey, who is counting anyways?
La Jolla will always be remembered and have a special place in our hearts. And maybe, just maybe..one day we could also call it home. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Brit, Teddi, Huckleberry and I could not thank Joe and Allie enough for letting the Menter's and everything we own stay at their humble abode for twelve days. Their joyful attitudes towards everything in life and whole hearted love will undoubtedly be missed.
THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!!!!
Next stop, Joshua Tree National Park.
