We escaped the heat in the San Gabriel Valley and headed out to much cooler weather in Oxnard for the holiday weekend. I cannot say enough good things about the weather...it was breezy and cool. It was so nice to be outdoors and not stuck inside in the air conditioning.
The plan for the weekend was very simple...relax, which we did. Tim and Trent took an adventure on their bikes down to the fishing shop to buy some bait and a fishing license. I was really nervous about the bike ride because they were riding on busy streets, but thankfully everyone came back in one piece.
Tim and Trent had fun fishing while kayaking. They didn't catch anything that time, but had fun. We did some night fishing, which was fun. It was rare to be able to sit on the dock in Oxnard in the evening and not be blown away by the cold wind. It was so nice to sit out on the dock and watch the boys fish. The big excitement of the night was that they finally caught a fish. We tried to get a picture of it, but it was too dark. We weren't the only ones that got lucky, a guy fishing at the other end of the dock was catching sting rays and after we left caught a 2 foot shark. I am glad I wasn't there when he caught the shark.
On Monday, Trent finally had some luck and caught a few fish. He was so excited. Trent wouldn't touch the fish or really even bait the hook, so Tim was really the one that was doing all the work.

All in all we had a nice relaxing weekend. We were sad to have to leave and return to the heat at home.
