On Sunday, I found Strands and Stitches online after some extensive (ok, maybe not that extensive...like 10 minutes worth) of searching and filtering out the yarn shops that were either closed on Sundays or just plain closed. It looked warm and welcomeing, so I decided to brave the California roads and make the drive from Garden Grove to Laguna Beach. (I'm apologize if I offend anyone who lives in California, your roads scare me second only to NYC. I'm sorry, New Yorkers, I will never, not even if my life depended on it, drive in NYC. There isn't enough time for me to write why, so I think it's safe to say we're all happier with this truth, so let's move on.)
First, I want to say something about Laguna Beach.
It. Is. Absolutely. Breathtaking. I'm not talking about the beautiful people, and expensive cars and the fancy hilltop real estate. No, what I am talking about is the amazing landscape upon which it is built.
The mountains and the ocean in the same breathtaking view. Driving down to the South Coast Highway, I was 2 blocks away when I caught my first sight of the Pacific ocean and it took my breath away. Although I've been to California a few times before, I've never actually seen the Pacific Ocean.
It may sound silly, but having grown up on the East Coast, I had yet to see anything like it in my life. From hearing people talk about it, it sounds like people around here really appreciate the beauty of the area. I can definitely understand why.
