Santa Cruz Beach Board Walk

I finally got to go to the Board walk.I've lived about 2 hours away from Santa Cruz Calif. for over 35 years and have never gone there.My best friend Mark planned out the trip.He and his wife and three kids and I headed out early in the morning with a packed lunch.Arrived around 11 a.m. The Beach was awesome.The water was cold but after awhile you kinda of got used to it.We boogie boarded (my first time),Then we had out lunch.Seen some Sand crabs.The kids played in the sand.After awhile we drove to the boardwalk.The kids loved the rides and it felt good to just get out and have a day away.In the evening we had hot dogs and sodas.Around 8 p.m. we were all getting tired and sunburned. We walked along the beach one more time.We stood there watching the waves and The Ocean.A nice breeze. And you could feel Gods presence.Only God could create something so calming and beautiful.I plan to go back often.Everyone needs a get away.Mine sure helped me alot. John
