Bareback Brunch

This week, my blog surpassed 10,000 views - thank you my dear friends, you are lovely people.  I may not post on any kind of consistent basis but I'm happy that I can use this place to connect with the people I love who are far away, I'm happy that I get to share my life with you all.

Here's some more photos from my San Diego trip last week with Farrah.  After a very long morning of sleeping in, the group headed out to enjoy brunch at Bareback Grill.  I hadn't been in about a year, and I love the food there (bonus: they charge for mimosas based on the time a day, starting at 50 cents - don't miss out!).  It was nice to take a stroll in the sunshine and have a lazy Sunday, and be able to relax with my best friend.  Once again: it's a bit of a challenge to only shoot with a fixed 50mm, so I was pretty limited.  There's also some random shots from the evening before.

there are a ton of murals and street art in PB, I love it

I have no idea who to credit for this photo, which is slightly creepy (and funny!)

La Jolla

Our first stop in San Diego this weekend was La Jolla - Farrah and I met up with our friend Megan at one of our college hangouts, The Living Room, on Prospect.  Like the good ol' days, we ordered coffee, dessert, and played a few rounds of cards.  It was so nice to catch up and relax (although the humidity was a bit ridiculous in SD this weekend).  Afterwards, Farrah ran to the car so as not to go past the 2 hour limit, we re-parked, and headed down to the Children's beach.  Only a few seals were around, but the weather and views were beautiful.  It's one of my favorite spots in San Diego besides Sunset Cliffs (which I completely adore), and holds so many memories for me...who doesn't live a bridge that leads to the middle of the ocean?

PB Sunset

Farrah and I decided to take a quick little trip to San Diego this weekend; after the anxiety of trying to find parking, we looked up to see a gorgeous sunset, and so before meeting our friends, we skipped down to the beach to soak in a proper Southern California sunset. Farrah and I go long stretches (several months!) before spending alone time together so I very much appreciated the opportunity to be with her.

All these photos are 100% untouched, so forgive my flaws - I just couldn't mess with what Mother Nature gave me.  (also, I only packed my fixed 50mm, which forced me to be very creative, I wish I had some wider shots)
