On Sunday we did a day trip up to Solvang. It’s a part of Santa Barbara in the Santa Ynez Valley. The whole town has a Danish look and feel to it. It was very charming. We strolled around the shops, had lunch and ice-cream. Andrew found a clock store that we visited twice before leaving. There were so many clocks to look at. He was in heaven! Piper found a doll shop and adopted a new baby (pictured below)
It still feels like summer here. We could see the affect the drought is having on our area by driving through the Valley. All the hills and fields were brown and dried out. It was sad to see knowing everything should be green and lush this time of year.
We did a wine tasting here and this vineyard was featured in the Sideways movie
Andrew couldn’t even turn around for the photo he loved it so much.

That looks like a really cool town! I remember the movie, Sideways..one of my faves! The clocks are so interesting, and I would have to go back to see them again, too! What a beautiful day for you all to be out and about! The kids are getting so big!!!!! Miss yinz!
