California Road Trip Part 1

Hello!

We are now home from our road trip adventures, I’m happy to be home, but sad at the same time. We saw so many beautiful things that I can’t even begin to share with you all how magnificent it was. We took California Hwy 1 and it was the most magical drive of my entire life. The drive is long and the roads are narrow and curvy, but it is so worth it. The scenery you see on California Hwy 1 is straight out of a picture. I was overwhelmed by all the beauty that surrounded us at all times. There are great pull outs, shops, and diners along the way. Everything along this route has so much character in it. It’s amazing to see how nature will find a way to grow and thrive anywhere, no matter what. There was something so emotional about this drive, I realized how beautiful life is and how much more precious memories are than stuff or things. I was drawn in by the trees; many of them growing solo out the side of a rock mountain. It’s just incredible. No one can tell a tree where to grow, because it will find a way to grow anywhere. It’s pretty impressive to take a trip and really absorb the nature that surrounds you. There are so many lessons to be learned from nature, all it’s beauty and strength, and yet it can’t speak to you with a voice. However, it speaks in great volume to my soul without saying anything at all, if I just listen with my heart and open my mind. [Read more...]
