John, our pack leader

Shell Beach thru a beautiful oak tree, Water break and shade stop

So clear! We could see Point Sal!

Pause for the Shade... Very warm day!

Almost to the top! We could almost see the Avila Lighthouse!

The Humans made it!

So did our doggies!

Thrilled to spend the day soaking up some sun with mom and dad!

An interesting camo of the cell tour. It was covered in fake leaves!

Avila Beach, A new angle.

What goes up, Must find a way down!

Loving the wild mustard!

Looks like a hill, felt like a mountain!

Wild Flowers

Intersting tree or maybe a cactus says John.

Recharge! Lunch at the Bluffs after rewarding hike!

Lunch was shared by big and small!

A neat view of the hike in the distance!

Car ride home, Bonnie is already planning next weeks adventure!

We wiped the girls out!!!

What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon. 

Stay tuned for more weekend adventures with

John, Ally, Bonnie, & Bella!!
