Last chance to soak in the California sunThe day before I left, I wanted to spend the day at one of my favorite beaches, Santa Monica.

I am going to miss the palm trees and warm sandy beaches, not to mention the beautiful sunsets.

Ryan flew in from Pheonix to see me before I left and My dad came down to help me drive the truck up to Washington.

Just hanging around having some fun

Yes, I did make it to that ring, just maybe not the next one.
