It’s time to visit Susan at A Southern DayDreamer to see the outdoor world around the blogisphere. Thank you Susan!
This is the amazing Rock at Morro Bay that is called the Gibraltar of the Pacific. With an extra day this past weekend because of Labor Day Dear and I drove up the coast of California on Saturday to escape the heat and bad air in Southern California.
It was a beautiful breezy day on the Central Coast of California. We had breakfast in Morro Bay, then walked around the Rock and the bay. We spent some time in the downtown area antique and thrift store shopping.
This Pelican almost landed on my head on his descent.
Instead of heading home we decided to drive North a little farther to the beach community of Cambria.
We enjoyed the ambiance of this town. There were pretty gardens and fun shops to walk through.
After our stroll through town we headed down to the beach and had a brisk windy walk.
We left home at 7:00 A.M. and arrived back home at 8:30 P.M. It was a full day!
Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.

Gorgeous photos! What a nice day that must have been!
It’s fun traveling all over on Wednesday night from my PC. Beautiful pictures.
Hi Ellen, I love the close up of the rock. It is so huge. Your photos are so lovely, and that is a striking pose!
That is one huge rock! So cool.
How I love my state! What memories I have of that place! A balmy afternoon..my best friend and her husband and myself and my husband, sharing wine in paper cups and laughing and laughing. We all four went to high school together. The guys graduated together and my friend and I did also two years later…
55 years of friendship!
How I miss them all.
Makes me cry but I love the memory! Thanks for the memories….
It looks like you had a fun time.

These are gorgeous photos! Wow!
The white anemone’s are beautiful. We have a sort of pinky/orchid color anemone. I love these white ones and may have to look for one.
Happy ODW!
What great photos! Now you have me thinking about a drive along the coast…since we plan to visit CA this fall. I’m off to see where Morro Bay is.
What wonderful pictures. I felt as though I were with you. It’s a stunning geological feature. Thanks for sharing your day with us.
That’s a wonderful area to explore! We do live in a beautiful state, don’t we!
simply beautiful these are some of the best pictures I have seen of that area
Such beautiful scenes! That rock is impressive.
I seems like a lovely trip. You look georgeous in one of the pictures.
Thanks for sharing. Have a great day,
Val
This just fascinated me the first time I saw pictures of this rock protruding from the ocean! We never made the trip down to see this area in our many visits to the coast, but if we do go back to CA, I would still love to see it. Your beach shots are just gorgeous, with the last vestige of the sun setting upon the water….

These are just great photos! The blue of the ocean and the sky is just about as blue as it’s ever going to get. Looks like a fantastic time. I would love to visit there myself!
