Busy Day and Other Happenings

Wednesday was one BUSY day....my cousin (her hubby had to work) took us on a tour of Atascadero. It is a small city about about 250 miles south of San Francisco and very close to the Pacific Ocean (10 miles)....we had breakfast at their son and daughter-in-law's cafe "McGee's" right on the main strip of town and then took a larger tour of the city - it's small town America right in the middle of California!  There is not even a larger shopping mall!  It has corner  strip-type malls but to get to a Target or Walmart you have to go to the next city north which is about 10 miles. We drove by their church, their daughter's house, as well as other points of interest in the city.  After this we drove home for a quick lunch and then took off for the movies....I haven't been to the movies in about 12-13 years but hubs goes regularly (hard for me to sit still long enough).  I really enjoyed this movie 'War Zone' and would recommend it to all.  There is a small theater in town but nothing good was playing so drove to San Luis Obispo to see it (15 miles) and it was well worth the trip!

After the movie we drove down to Morro Bay, had Mexican food for dinner, and watched the sunset. Morro Rock was just as stunning (truly God's working!).  We then toured the state beach where my family did some camping back 100 years ago when I was a kid.  The sunset was GORGEOUS (again only God could have done this!).  One of the things we love most about traveling is seeing all these awesome places!

We were exhausted, went back to my cousin's home and fell asleep early!
