El Capitan State Beach






I left work early on Friday for a lovely drive up the 101 to Santa Barbara, where I met my friends Michael and Andrew and we all went camping at El Capitan State Beach, about 17 miles west of Santa Barbara. We met up on the 101 on the way, and stopped in Santa Barbara for some groceries and some Starbucks. It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day in the 80s, and clear weather. We set up camp, and I started to make my Beef Bourguignonne, in my dutch oven over the fire. It was Mike's birthday earlier that week, so we celebrated, and we all had such a great dinner with smores afterwards on the open fire. We spent all evening chatting and enjoying the stars and the moon overhead. The next morning after a nice breakfast of bacon and eggs we all went to the beach for a nice view before we left and headed back to Los Angeles and Long Beach.
