Took a riding lesson #DailyGratitude

New photo gallery: Monarch Grove
Catherine Ryan Hyde
I just added a new gallery to my catherineryanhyde.photo site. Ella and I drove down to the Pismo Beach Monarch Grove, where the season is in full swing. We brought back a lot of photos. If you're anywhere near Pismo Beach, you should consider going. If not, click on this link. It'll be the next best thing.
