Ventura Holiday




I have spent many holidays in Ventura. If I can remember correctly, almost every Christmas I have spent here I have made a trip to the beach. It's usually sunny and warm on this holiday. It was a little chilly today, nothing to really complain about, just under 60 degrees and it was sunny.

I'm not too sure why, but I have been really interested in driftwood lately. It has so many uses. You can build surf shacks out of it. I'm planning on building picture frames out of it too. There is a great artistic quality to this wood. And it's just there on the beach, soaking up rays. Maybe I like driftwood so much because it really defines what life should be. It travels all over the world, crashes on the beach, lays in the sand and sits in the sun. Okay, so this is my dream and my way of looking at it.

It's just a reminder to take a holiday from the day to day rat race of your life. Become driftwood for a day, just sit and watch the world go by. After all, it's going to go by no matter what, you may as well enjoy every moment of it you can.
