Montano De Oro

We snuck over to the coast a couple of weekends ago to get out of the blazing heat and hit up some of our favorite spots... Firestone Grill for lunch in San Luis, a walk along the creekbed with Chocolate Milkshake frozen yogurts from Country Culture, and a quick jaunt over to the Atascadero Zoo (I was actually traumatized by this zoo when Ryan took me back when we were dating - I swear there was an anorexic tiger there and it was the saddest thing I have ever seen! Fortunately the zoo's current tiger inhabitant 'Sala' was very healthy this time.). We spent the rest of the day running down the massive sand dunes at Sandspit in Montano De Oro and dodging monster jellyfishies that were all over the beach! It was a great little getaway, but every time Ryan and I go over and drive past the wineries we secretly wish we had ditched the kiddos so we could stop and do a little tasting again. Apparantly it does not bode well to have a kid in one hand and a glass in the other.
One of these days... :)
