I've been riding a wave of nostalgia for Santa Cruz for a while. It's remarkable how easy it is to take the things you adore for granted. Having the beach be a ten minute walk from my house, having amazing hiking and mountain scenery be no more than a twenty minute drive, and all the weird and amazing little quirks in between. While it's true that I've been missing just about everything lately, what I'm really pining for is the environment and how we used it (and wishing we had used it much more while we could).
Like flying Eliot's pirate kite at the beach in the middle of January.
Or going on river walks along the San Lorenzo river.
Or hiking at the Pogonip.
Just been thinking about these places more than usual lately, and how neat it would be to go to them.
