Livin on the edge

...or at least right off the California coast in Pismo. We've spent the entire morning getting here with what, 5 stops?! We've been enjoying the day's sunshine and warm temperatures of 67 degrees in winter. We had a great lunch at Hoagie's and took a walk to the pier. We had ice cream are now parked on the beach. Yes. On the beach. Where else can you drive right onto the sand? As much as I gripe about Pismo, I'm grateful for it being so close to our home and for providing us with a little "escape" from home. In the words of Ice Cube, today was a good day.
