Moretti Canyon hike

Off the couch!: Moretti canyon hike

Off the couch!: Moretti canyon hike: Scenic, pastoral 3.2 mile trail on a crisp February day. Well- maintained dirt road weaves past ranch houses, cows, horses, shetland ponies, friendly dogs, and hawks above. Some elevation, but mostly an easy trek.

Joining me on this hike were Linda, Gale, Deb, Susan, and that sweet dog, Balloo!

Sycamore Springs Trail

On Friday last, Linda Burke and I hiked to the top of the Sycamore Springs trail and were rewarded with a panoramic view of the blue Pacific below. The trail is challenging...a steady incline...but wide and with a number of fellow hikers to keep us company ...dogs, too. Afterward, I met Kathy McGrath for a picnic lunch at the ocean park off Indio Street in Shell Beach. Boy, did I sleep good that night with all that fresh ocean air and exercise!

Bob Jones to the Beach

Kathy joined me on a beautiful Sunday morning for the 4+ mile hike on the Bob Jones trail to the beach and back home. Our route took us via the timeshare resort and onto the beachfront where we stopped for a bite at JoMommas. Perfect weather AGAIN and great exercise for a Sunday morning. At the beach, we saw swimmers in their wetsuits swimming out around the pier. Water was calm...it seemed the perfect day for a swim.

The Bluffs Hike...Shell Beach

This hike is the Bluffs in Shell Beach which starts on El Portal Drive in Shell Beach and continues through the Bluffs housing development...very expensive homes...and continues along the ocean front, looking down on Pirate's Cove, a sometimes "nude" beach!
