Spring Break 2021

Ventura Harbor Village

We followed my sis to the quiet, coastal town of Hollywood Beach, Oxnard where she rented a magnificent 6 bed/6.5 bath house on the beach for the week.

She said, "Come Please!"  

I said, "Yes Please!"

(How can I ever say no to creating love, connection, and strong bonds with my family?)

We loaded the SUV and set ourselves free from our Zoom-induced carpel tunnel.

It was one, big house packed with six adults and seven kids with lots of roomy, living spaces to hide, play, or gather.

Best view? No doubt.

We worshipped the sun together, cooked meals together and cozied up to one another for Netflix nights.

We trekked through sand by day.

Santa Barbara was a short 60 minute drive to dine al freso along their "streeteatery".  

David never wants to take photos with me.

Was spring break a phone-free zone? No.

Memorable? Absolutely.
