One of the reasons our little town is so attractive to us is because of its small town feeling. Sometimes the festivals are a pain. There's the Harbor Fest, Avocado & Margarita Fest (really?), car show, and so on. But we get. We need the tourism to keep the pursestrings full.
Last weekend, we were invited on our friend/colleague's boat. They had entered her in the Morro Bay Boat Parade. How fun and so cool! This isn't a rinky-dink little boat, but a ~50ft. livable one. Well, unfortunately, I had to work at the Octagon Barn Holiday lighting, so we didn't go.
While I was at that event, RT, my parents, and the baby did go to the boat parade. We all had fun at our separate events.
The following Tuesday, the Morro Bay police, the trolley, and other community groups ride around with their lights flashing, sirens blasting, and horns honking with Santa. They cruise up and down the streets wishing neighbors "Merry Christmas!" It's so quirky, but so Morro Bay! We love it! Everyone comes out to their decks to wave and cheer them on.
It is finally starting to feel a lot like Christmas!
