Karis!

We got an early start, rode a bit in the much-needed rain, passed through eclectic downtown Santa Barbara, then stopped at a small farmer's market.  Tasty almonds and hummus (27 kinds to choose from) provided a delicious supplement to our lunch.  Then, back on the road, we followed a newly constructed bike path paralleling the highway and the ocean all the way to Ventura!  

Last night we were lucky enough to hang out with our good friend Karis and her family.  Passing out candy to trick-or-treaters, watching The Princess Bride, playing music, eating homemade pizza, and falling asleep to the sound of rain drumming on the roof... Life is good in Ventura!
