“Walk with Me” (Ventura, California)
Life is many things: Intense. Beautiful. Unpredictable.
But, through it all, we can always count on this – tomorrow is a new beginning. A chance to reinvent. To become a better version of ourselves.
Or, maybe it’s an opportunity to take that leap of faith. And, risk it all for something (or someone) wonderful.
These new opportunities. These new days. Are all preceded by one thing. A beautiful sunset.
That’s right. Because a new day cannot begin – until yesterday’s sun has set.
I hope you enjoy my sunset photos. Have an awesome day, my friends!

Hi Kevin! 🙂 Thanks for liking my “Happy Valentine’s Day!” post. I don’t get tired of looking at sunset photos, and it was a pleasure to see yours. I especially like the reflection of the orange light of the sunset on the water in “Lovely View.”

Hey Michele, I didn’t know you grew up in CA. That’s awesome. I’ve only lived here for 5 years. Grew up in NY. Spent my summers at the Jersey Shore. Those were some amazing beaches too. Thanks so much for the kind words!!

Oh, yes, I was born in LA and grew up in North Hollywood. I spent my high school years living in Manhattan Beach. Good memories. I’ve never been to NY, and I bet the Jersey Shore was a great place to spend summers, but I bet you love the warmth of Southern Cal.

Hi Miriam, thank you so much! This beach is about 45 minutes from my house. We take our kids there often. There is a cool little playground on the beach – in the sand. It’s a very relaxing place. Especially compared to the LA beaches, which are a little further south. Great to hear from you!
