On the pier at Santa Cruz...

Its been several months since we've been back to Santa Cruz, but I wanted to revisit the pictures I took last trip and post a few more. Like most coastal california communities the atmosphere is laid back and relaxed, everyone is very friendly and you want to just buy a beach shack and stay forever. Unfortunately, these days, one has to have very deep pockets for even (in the most literal sense of the word) a beach shack, here and in most cali beach towns.

Ah but the beaches are still free for all of us to enjoy!
