Solstice Canyon hike

When we were in our 20’s we used to be out ’til the early morning on shenanigans, sleep for a few hours, have an ice cream for breakfast and take off on 4 hour hikes before it got to hot.
Apparently I got old. My body was not into the 8 am wake up call or the 45 minute drive in the morning and I was about to give up before even getting out of the car. 
With a bit of a push I made it through the loop though and it made me feel a lot better.

Then I crashed on the beach. I had to invest in an “hanged over umbrella” so I could stay in the shade. It was very much worth it!

There was a ton of people at the beach today!
