C Street
Lens: Pentax 17-70 mm Camera: Pentax K-5 Photo Location: Ventura, CA 
Posted By: GeoJerry, 10-22-2014, 06:00 PM

Another shot from near the Ventura pier, this one looking at so called C Street (for California Street, a main thoroughfare that dead ends on the coast here), a favorite surf haunt of the locals. These guys are getting their last waves of the day.

Thanks Bob. Some things never change, it's still pretty much the same here as it was 40 years ago when I was a surf dude myself. This beach wasn't mentioned in Surfin' USA, but Ventura County Line beach was, about 20 miles south of here.

Want to trade? We lived in Marin for 4 years in the 1980's and liked that better than anyplace else we've ever lived. Thinking about retirement in Mill Valley.

Very poignant, for some reason.
