Since I have to work a midnight shift tonight, I was blessed with perfect weather today that allowed me to stay out of the house and enjoy the area. After a small hike around my neighborhood here on the former Ford Ord, I went out to the new Dunes State Park. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for better conditions. It was right around 20C and the wind was relatively light.

I was elated to find that I had the entire beach to myself! What a great way to relax and let time slowly slip away.
