Here are some more photos from yesterday's trip. It was a spectacular day! I took this photo from my car window; I pulled over to the shoulder of the highway.
The orange trees look so healthy. They are massive! There are acres and acres of them along Highway 126, too.
Many of the local shops and cafes are dog friendly. Some offer bowls of water at the doorstep for visiting pooches. Lula was an enthusiastic companion. She is so relaxed and well behaved in the car.

I love that porch. It's so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNow Stephenie, you shouldn't take photos while you are driving. :)
Hi Nil, I did pull over and stop the car to take that photo. I guess I worded that incorrectly. I love the porch, too. It looks so peaceful.
DeleteThat scenery is stunning... my kind of scenery. As for the cottage... I would live there in a blink it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIt's breathtaking, Cherie. I went back yesterday for a knitting group. The energy of Ojai is so healing.
DeleteHeehee Nils-I thought the same thing about taking photos while driving!!! One of my favorite things to when we visit towns is to wander the neighborhoods. You can see some charming homes.
ReplyDeleteHi Anita, Don't worry, I always pull over to use my camera. I love walking through the neighborhoods and admiring the older homes, too. They have so much personality.
DeleteWhat a nice trip! And those orange trees....too neat! Your dog is cute. There was a bakery in town once (in DE) that was a dog bakery. they had an air conditioning spot where your pet could catch a cool breeze, cold water (like yours has)...and the bakery itself was retro and so neat just to walk in (I'd like to imagine it was a people's bakery).

ReplyDeleteYes, there is, Angela. It makes me imagine what life was like there in the 1800's.
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrea. There are acres and acres of orange groves. It's incredible. That bakery sounds fun.
ReplyDeleteI love old homes and cottages too, Stephenie. There's always such character to them. I often wonder who built them and who lived there. In the city where I live, the old traditional homes have wide verandahs and tin roofs. They are called Queenslanders. Meg:)
ReplyDeleteHi Meg, Aren't they wonderful, Meg? They change the whole vibration of the street and neighborhood. The mature trees really make a difference, too.
