First stop to day was the Quicksilver Miniature Horse Ranch.

These two were sparing with each other the whole time we were there.

There was a little nipping......

......a little dancing

and a little kicking.

Then it was off to the lavender farm via the vineyards.

I probably wouldn't go there, but these guys are really into it. lol

This is where they sell all of the lavender products. Pretty high prices.

Lavender in the field looks like a cross between jojoba and sage brush with purple flowers.

Usually the bloom is fuller when we are here, but maybe a late harvest this year.

Even the chairs have absorbed the color from the fields.

......but the still hasn't.

I was told that Drum Canyon Rd was in bad shape.

When we got there they have patched all of the potholes.....

.....and even repaved it in some places

Even so, Kasey wasn't too impressed with it. 

Personally, I liked it!

We were thinking about it, but forgot our suits.

Besides, the beach was closed to protect these guys.

I liked this piece of driftwood.

There is a nice Amtrak station here.

.....but the ticket machine is going away.

Probably an old ammunition bunker.

Headed downtown for some yummy yogurt and took this pic.

I always like to visit the old missions.

I have visited every one of them in California. Of course most of them were the miniature kind at Knott's Berry Farm. lol Actually I think I have been to most of the real ones too!
