For My World Tuesday, I checked Wikipedia. Ventura, located north of LA and south of Santa Barbara, has some of the best surfing in southern California. I posted some pictures from Surfer's Point in a previous post. During my visit, and after two days soaking up the ocean vibes, we took a short walk from my sister's condo on Santa Clara to downtown Ventura.
Here is a lovely fountain in front of a mural related to the Mission San Buenaventura. Like many places in California, it was established as a Catholic Mission.
Isn't this a wonderful tiled planter?
I was concentrating on getting a picture of the mission and didn't notice this SoCal dude driving by in his convertible until later. This is definitely not in Utah!
My favorite store was We Olive. The sales guys were so helpful. There was a bar lined with olive oil flavors and dunkies to try them out. I came home with a little taste and a promise to order more online.
It was another great day in California!

Cool dude in the convertible. He looks very un-Utah!
Nice shots of Ventura. Love the fountain.
Lovely - all these different facets of Southern California.
The thing I remember most about visiting some of the missions was the swallows flying all around the walls. They really seemed to love those buildings.
Oh, yeah! Definitely a cool, California dude! Very definitely un-Washington, too. Love your captures of Ventura, the fountain and that lovely tile planter. Looks like a really fun visit! Thanks for taking us along!
Enjoy!

I could almost feel the warmth of the day. Enjoyed then scenic Sunday post also
Wonderful architecture, nothing like this area. We get a few dudes in convertibles, their degree of coolness is questionable!
Sunny :)
LOvely to see all different places in the world. Great shots
Fun shots! Lovely colors.
California is different from any other place in the world, me thinks. LOL Thanks for the tour of Ventura through the eyes of someone from Utah.
Looks as though your days were filled with blue skies, beautiful scenery, and fabulous food. What could be better? Love the fountain shot!
Very nice - I really liked the fountain shot. Thanks for sharing your world!
Great series of photos and a nice tour of Ventura.
Loran, I love hearing about your trip to CA.... The fountain is gorgeous and that tile planter is unique. WOW!!!!
Did you go inside of the mission? Such a neat church/mission. Beautiful...
Life in CA must be wonderful.
