SoCal Winter Hiking Along the Coast

Sunday is hiking day.  This time we attempted hiking closer to the beach in San Clemente.  But the weather was not very cooperative.  So we ended up going back to the Las Ramblas trails in southern San Juan Capistrano.  At first it was a little sunny, then the overcast dark clouds were making their way where we were.  Funny how mom and I have that happen to us.  So we started hiking and as we got higher and higher up and on the hills, the storm seemed to head straight for us.  I took some snapshots at the top.  Normally you get amazing views of the Pacific, but not on this day.  And as per the norm, we decided to go off the beaten path, take little side trails and tried to find a shortcut.  But of course, just our luck, we had to back track! Very funny joke on us.  But in the ends we had a good hike, had a good little workout and we headed back on over to the San Clemente pier and had ourselves some fresh seafood.
