San Diego? Santa Barbara? Long Beach?
Calling Dora the Explorah.
The wedding was in Santa Cruz, and it was cold out there.
Ah, but it still was sunny! I’m glad you enjoyed a little bit of the beach. It was a favorite hang out when we were kids, even though I lived many miles inland. I have cousins who still live there.
Many years ago, my aunt and uncle hosted Thanksgiving dinner in Santa Cruz. My husband was in Europe, but I took all my kids on the bus south from the SF Bay Area. (4 of them ranging from the ages of 5-10). It was a particularly cold year. In fact they had a little bit of snow several weeks later.
My mother drove over from the valley, bringing my grandmother. My grandmother was concerned that my littlest one wasn’t dressed warmly enough, and she encouraged him to zip his jacket and pull up his hood.
He looked at her, dead pan, and answered, “That’s why we come to the beach, Great Grandmother, to get cold.”
She laughed about that for the rest of her life.
Bagels are frabjewously delicious.
