butterfly beach | one of those experiences

Last year, I had an experience. One that makes me think to myself, "And in that moment, I swear we were infinite." Walking along the river, listening to live music, slowing down. Living. 

When I visited Santa Barbara last month, I had another one of those experiences. We had just finished up a long, HOT day at the beach. Sunburned, happy, and incredibly hungry, we hopped in the car and picked up some In-N-Out. Then, we drove to Butterfly Beach and watched the sun set. Laughing, chatting, dipping our toes in the water, enjoying life. "And in that moment, I swear we were infinite." 

I have mentioned her a few times (and I took pictures of her here), but this is Ashley. 

She is London meets California meets New York. She listens to you when you talk. She dances in the car. She is a dreamer, an adventurer, a hard worker. 

California man, it has my heart.
