Summer 2018 Quest Update

This summer I wanted to try out easy day trip activities from Santa Barbara. We did a lot of fun things but didn't get though as many as I had hoped--moving will do that to you! I made a more complete list with more suggestions from friends and feel free to make more suggestions below. 

Also what should I do next summer? It is a ways away but I can plan it now. 😉
