Our last week in California.



We have had a fun time during our last week in California.  We left Sacramento and headed to Vandenberg Air Force Base to use their FamCamp.  Terry had fun seeing how the base has changed since he last visited here while on active duty.  He was able to ride his bike on base, too.

We used this as a base camp to visit the area and we ate at Andersen’s Pea Soup restaurant in Buellton.  One of our day trips was to Santa Barbara where we ate at Cold Springs Tavern, visited the Reagan Ranch Center/Gallery, then watched the finish of stage 5 of the Tour of California bike race.

Another day trip was to the Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley.  Wow, what an honor to visit the library and see his grave site. 

We celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary by going to Solvang for Danish and coffee, a trolley ride around the Danish Capital of America, then lunch at the Red Viking.

Lots of farms and vineyards in this area of the state.  We are not used to seeing black soil!  No wonder this area is good for farming.  Not like the red/brown clay dirt we were used to in Colorado.  

We are on our way to Tucson to pick up the grandkids who get out of school this week.  Then taking them to COLORADO!!!!
