I grew up next to Lake Michigan, so the massive Pacific's water view, although pretty, just doesn't really do so much for me. However, when you add all these rocks and cliffs that make up So Cal beaches I am totally in my happy place. Add to them some tide pools and I will never leave. In all seriously we do leave. But we keep on coming back, probably way too much! Yesterday we found a million little crabs which is pretty much the most exciting thing ever when you are four years old. And this guy also discovered that tide pools stay warm when everything around you is right next to freezing temps. He makes it look like summer but I was wearing long pants and a jacket behind my lens. ;-) How I love this little guy made of steel, and all his sweet adventures. <3
