Home after the Holidays. . .

I went north for five days over the Christmas holiday.  I had a wonderful time.  This is a gingerbread man I made while joining my grand daughters in decorating fun.

Calm Day in Ventura

After the rain I made my way south toward home.  Stopping in Ventura to check out the action at the harbor.  The action was fairly light.

The beauty by the front door

This morning while leaving the place I spotted this newly blossomed flower.  Winter is just around the corner.  The Camillas are right on time.

The Storm Has Passed

We had a wild weekend of rain, wind and sub 50 degree weather.  All that is but a faint memory and blue skies and puffy white clouds have returned to our spot on the globe.

Early December Light

The setting sun in early December cast an eerie glow on my castle.
