Google photos went a little too hard on the editing but it captures the color reflection for sure
After an excellent weekend of driving my Miata somewhere around 600 miles purely for fun, I made it down to Malibu with my girlfriend in order to see a gorgeous sunset at El Matador beach. It is a solid 35-40 minutes from home but there was no traffic and it was an excuse for another spirited drive in the lovely weather. That photo is google photos gone wrong so here is the original:
I always love the pink reflection that happens when there are some clouds. Even though this meant we didnt get much of a view of the actual sunset, this is certainly special as well. It was a fitting end to a great weekend, one of which I hope to have many throughout the summer. Certainly a lesson well learned that the more driving I can do without any sort of destination, the better!
Only drove the STi a little bit but it was nice to escape the midday heat (90F+) on Saturday thanks to ice cold AC

I can’t help but think that beach and those roads look like they belong in an episode of Columbo.

Hmm don’t think I’ve seen that show. A bit before my time looking at the wiki page for it.

It’s a great detective show for car nuts. Besides the Peugeot 403 that Columbo drives, nearly every episode has some kind of Cali car weirdness going on.

That is beautiful out there! Mountains and sea?! That’s the only thing that would make Asheville perfect. Not having to drive 6 hours to the beach (4ish to closest).

Oh yeah for sure, definitely what makes the East coast and West coast so different. Like sure there are mountains and trees and oceans in both places but its hard to find all three back east in the same place. Usually it is trees and mountains in one place and ocean a solid 3+ hours away. And there is not much elevation where its too high for trees to grow so you don’t really get plain, empty mountains either. But the one thing I will say is how damn green everything is back East. I have gone hiking in the summer two weekends in a row, one in Socal and the other in upstate NJ and the color difference was insane to me. Just how much more green and undergrowth there was back East was like tropical versus desert.

Damn that’s a nice couple of weekends! And yeah I don’t take our rainforest environments for granted around here. They are so cool! Still like to make my way out west to see the differences for myself! Also:
