had a work meeting, but first, the coast

i had a work meeting later that morning, but first, i wanted some time by the ocean. i stopped at paris baguette in campus plaza in irvine for a pastry, then headed toward crystal cove. in the parking lot, i asked a woman if she knew somewhere i could back the truck up and have the whole ocean to myself. She indeed knew the spot. so i parked, made coffee on the tailgate, ate my pastry, and stayed there for a while before heading to my meeting. sometimes you don't need a whole day off. you just need a little time before the day starts. crystal cove, ca. | reef point | orange county coast | paris baguette, campus plaza | toyota tundra | bluetti elite 300 | yeti tundra 35 | timemore chestnut c3s pro | canon r7 | canon rf 24-105mm f/4l | sigma 17-40mm f/1.8 art | davinci resolve | audiio no rush getting anywhere. you're welcome to join me. @moebramwell #moebramwell #californiacoast #beforework
