This morning as I think about Santa Barbara: its sunshine and recent spate of 70 degree weather, I stop myself and bite my tongue. The reason is, I've been to Milwaukee, spent time there trying to toughen my soft, Santa Barbara skin. And over a period of two years, I saw fresh snow dust pines with powder and create scenes of visual splendor that would have made Walt Disney swoon.
Santa Barbara's beauty is no secret, but when it comes to majesty, we don't corner the market.
Hi Anitra, Beautiful pictures but I must admit, I'm more of a fan of warm weather. By the way, I do believe a happy birthday is in order!

In regards to my birthday, somehow, word's gotten out that mine's in Jan. Fact is, it's 8 months away. But it's the sentiment that counts, no? And so, thanks for your well wishes.
