At Ventura RV Resort

We finally made it to Ventura Ca.To start our stint here at Ventura Beach Resort.We are here til April 20th.Jeni is getting a lot of beach time and she is loving it.We are working 2 days a week Jeni in the office and me I'm working security.Yea that is right ole Barney Fife is making the campers here at the resort feel safe! More on Barney in my next blog.Were working Sat-Sun so we have all week to play and playing we are doing.

 This is a first class resort.A nice store,rec room,pool,spa and of coarse 24hr security.lots of grass no dirt.

 We visited a quaint little danish town called Solvang northeast of Santa Barbara.It was our anniversary and we had a hankering for a good German dinner.

 We spied this nice looking Danish restaurant and were really tempted but we really wanted Something German so we kept on looking.

We finally found what we were looking for "the Heidelberg Inn" Bratwurst,red cabbage,and German potatoes yum yum! and the beer.....superb!

 This was our waitress. She was a cutie and took real good care of Jeni and I.It was like dining in Hamburg so authentic.

 The dishes were so good and the beer was classic German lager. after this meal we had to walk it off around town.

This clock tower building caught our eye.Every 1/2 hr the bells in the tower would ring.What a great place.

 Jeni is standing in the bell tower of the Santa Barbara court house overlooking the city.What a view.We took a trip down to Santa Barbara and checked out downtown.

 The courtyard outside the court house was fantastic.This was the focal point of the downtown district.

A look at the court house from the courtyard.You can see the bell tower to the left that Jeni was at.

 Jen and I  are only 15 minutes away from the beach walking  the bike path .Only 5 minutes by car.We have been spending 5 days a week on the beach.We are doing other things too.

You can see by our smiling faces that we love where we are right now.This beach is just southwest of the resort.It is very secluded. On the other side of the park is the boardwalk and beach.This beach is a little busier with surfers,bikers,and dog walkers.A short walk out of the park and we are tanning on the beach. We are here for 7 months so we are going to see it all.Who says retirement is boring.Were livin the "La vida bueno""! Another great thing about being here.....My brother and his wife live close to the resort so we have been spending time with them.We have plans for a football game in Pasadena later this month,kids and grand kids for the holidays,and endless excursions in the following months.Life is good at Ventura Beach RV Resort.
