Santa Barbara trip pt 1 of 2

Viks and I took mini-trip to Santa Barbara. Sunday was mostly just walking along State St which is a main street with many little boutique shops as well as big name department stores, and eateries. On Monday we went to Circle Bar B Ranch to go horseback riding. It was a half day ride on a mountain trail and we saw some spectacular views of the coast as well as a glimpse of former President Reagan's ranch. The half day duration was more than I bargained for as my knees hurt pretty bad toward the end. I still need to learn how to trot...cause everytime we trotted, I was quite worried about damaging the "family jewels."
