As seems to be becoming the tradition, on my birthday, I went out for a flight with Melissa. 2 landings.
We took off and flew over to the Monterey Bay then up the coast, going as far as the Pigeon Point lighthouse before the clouds started looking rather thick and we decided not to press on. Going further would have meant either flying over the deck (what fun is that?) or flying quite low over the ocean (that area has a 2,000' floor per NOAA).
We went back and overflew the Monterey Bay Academy airport. The runway was closed, so we didn't try to land. It looks like an awesome place to go sometime, now that I've been cleared for grass strip landings by my CFI! :)
We landed in Watsonville and took a break, then got back up in the air and returned to KRHV.
