SoCal weather patterns

We are officially in the beginning of summer, but down here in the Southland we have lots of grey in the mornings. They call it "June gloom." Sort of reminds me of when we lived in Montara. I guess the difference being the clouds usually burn off by midday so at least half of your day is nice. Actually, this year we've been having unusually grey days and sometimes it does not clear at all. Harrumph.

Today was a good day and we woke up to sunshine. Mommy had a business trip to the SF bay area, so she hopped a plane from Burbank meanwhile Daddy and I headed the opposite direction to Ventura. There's a long wooden pier there and we went to investigate. We found lots of fishermen and crabbers. A lot of sand, seaweed and a playground was also encountered. Maybe we'll have to come back with our fishing rods.

On the way home, we stopped off in Oxnard/Camarillo for some Vietnamese pho. You know, the big beefy, salty broth with slices of steak and rice noodles? We used to eat it all the time in the bay area, but have yet to find a good spot down here. This place was pretty good, probably not worth the drive specifically for it, but serviceable if you happened to be in the area. There's a sneaky little back entrance to our neighborhood from the Western side. It made for a pretty direct route back home for a big nap.
