To celebrate our one year, we decided to head to Leo Carrillo State Beach and go camping for the night. We took the longer, but scenic route through the canyons of the Santa Monica mountains. The clouds were playful in a massive sky. The sun was giving and so was the weather. It was a perfect, beautiful start to our adventure.
We found a couple of neat caves to wander through...
Then proceeded to get really cheesy and cute for a minute...
And shortly thereafter, the end of a beautiful day came with the astounding beauty of the night to ensue...
An hour after we unpacked the car and had breakfast back at our house it was raining on the eastside. Standing outside on the balcony watching the rain fall, it seems as though it was almost all a dream. Or maybe just a gift. <3

And then, we arrived.
And picked out our campsite...
And then it was time to go explore and enjoy the sunset somewhere.

It was an amazing, full moon night filled with lots of time hanging out beside our campfire, making delicious smores, playing guitar and violin together, and reading to each other before going to bed. I couldn't have asked for a better evening with the man I love. The moon was incredibly bright and radiant, no headlamps needed, and the weather was great given the projected forecast of rain which never came.
We awoke in the morning and explored the beach all over again taking in it's infinite and powerful beauty. This is by far the cleanest and most stunning beach I've been to in the surrounding LA area.
