I was at the beach - at Venice Beach in Santa Monica when I took this photo of sea gull flying towards the pier - you can see the fun zone in the background. I think next week we are heading to the coast again to hang around Laguna and on up the coast - I doubt it but I wish we had the time to go all the way to Santa Monica. Our temps all over Southern California are really going to be hot again - not as hot as our last horrible heatwave that topped out about 120 degrees in some Inland Empire areas (below the mountains where I live)...but this time it says our high will hit 95 up here and probably 105 to 110 down in the valley.
