Shakin’ Loose a Memory


​I remember the day Nancy and I pulled into Santa Barbara, after three days of driving here from North Dakota. Our first stop was to check into a hotel right across from the beach, of course, and then to buy a local newspaper and settle in for a quick swim before we started looking for apartments and jobs. Setting up our towels on the beach, we eagerly dashed into the water, only to be met with gasps of surprise from one another as we realized the water was very cold. We later learned the ocean here is a constant 65° on average, which keeps the temperature in Santa Barbara during the warmer summer months very temperate. Needless to say, we got down to the apartment hunting fairly quickly!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


Our beautiful beach. It was RIGHT HERE we came on our first day in Santa Barbara. πŸ’•
