Ojai!

Oh, hi. (Yes, that's a pun.) Another day trip and we actually get to check a place off our California list. On a nice crisp fall day, we drove up to Ojai. Its only 40 minutes from our house. Easy-peasy.



Ojai is an artsy town with a lot of Spanish colonial architecture and public art, like this fountain with a matajilla poppy sculpture.

It also had nice parks.

Here's another fountain, in a naturalistic setting.

All the roses were done flowering and had formed rose-hips.

Here's the Ojai Museum.

And a bear sculpture.

And two little girls climbing on the bear!
