Lighthouse

Last weekend, as a diversion from running errands and shopping, we took a quick drive to the Interpretive Center next to the Point Vicente Lighthouse on the Southwest side of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. As we passed the lighthouse, I snapped this picture through the open car window. Catalina Island can be seen across the channel.

Three Daffodils

We were on the backyard swing cleaning up our guns after a trip to the shooting range when I grabbed the camera and got this shot of these three daffodils with the sunlight a little behind them. Great colors, don’t you think? Click the image for larger view.

Point Vicente

We were out running errands and shopping today, but we paused that activity long enough to go to the Point Vicente Interpretive Center since it was such a nice day. I set up the little camera to get this shot of us as we were enjoying the coastline and the day.
