Morro Bay

We went to Morro Bay to stay with the Schmidts this weekend and it was very beautiful.
We got to see where some Monarch butterflies were winterizing
 (I don't know if you can tell from the picture
 but those orangish bunches of leaves are actually hundreds of butterflies)

The waves were huge!  You can see the surfer out there and this was a smaller wave.
I got to hold a butterfly....blowing on them keeps them warm so they don't fly away.
I was obsessed with the waves....
