Art Crawling in Laguna Beach to See My Sister's Featured Painting
We finished up our vacation tonight with a trip to Laguna Beach for an excellent sunset dinner at The Cliff restaurant. @corinnestokes and I had some cocktails and a fabulous meal with an incredible sunset view.
Isn't she gorgeous?
Our kids were with us as well (though my picture of Devon came out all fuzzy).
Aria really wanted to take a selfie together, so here we are.
Towards the end our of meal we met up with my sister and her family who got a table right behind us.
The main reason for coming to Laguna Beach tonight was the first Thursday of the month art crawl. My sister Kara made this crawl special because her painting was featured in the window at her art gallery collective. She did the green painting on the right:
You can see more of her work (please like her page!) on Facebook at Kara Elizabeth Designs. She's heard me talk about Steemit for over a year and a half now (she created @karaelizabeth in August of 2016), and she mentioned tonight she might be getting involved here this year. Here's hoping. :)
As part of the art crawl they have a free trolly going up and down Pacific Coast Highway to visit all the many, many galleries. Since we were with all the kids (both my sisters and our own), we didn't stay too long. There were so many amazing galleries. I want to come back!
Devon was telling his cousin all about his favorite iPhone game.
My brother-in-law Cale was taking fun photos with his twin boys and Aria.
Corinne and Kara were sitting behind me for a trolly selfie.
The all-wood interior added to the fun memories of the night.
It's been a wonderful vacation with surfing, sailing, more surfing, skating, miniature golf, and more. Thankfully my foot feels fine after stepping on a stingray a few days ago. I want to stay longer in this beautiful weather because we only have cold to look forward to when we get home:
Yeah.
Not fun.
Oh well. As always, we'll make the most of it. At least being indoors and getting back to my normal routine will give me a little more time to focus on the latest Steemit news. :)
I hope you're having a great start of the year so far.
Also, is it just me, or are more and more people starting to take cryptocurrency seriously? It's going to be a huge year, and it's just getting started!
Steem On!
Your post just made my day. :) You've got such a lovely family. And I am sure your sister will have some great success here on Steemit so definitely she needs to start posting. We've got to see her amazing artworks here as well.
And YES it will be a great crypto year. More and more people starting to be interested in the crypto. Me and my husband have joined the crypto world 6-7 months ago and during that time many of our friends have asked us where to start from and how to join as well. Even in my small country interest in crypto is gaining a lot.
Thanks for saying so. :)
Look , there is someone who is thinking big , someone who really dreams at highest values that can be made . I am so glad to see becoming artists to do such a great work and share their paintings by steeming . This is a real pleasure to see people involved in the community .
Keep on doing what you really like .

Where from you
You have a wonderful family Luke.
You can be very happy :)
Nice to see that your vacation went good and you have had a great time.
Your sister is talented and makes some nice artwork.
It would be great if she would join steemit since I think, she definitely would get much support!
And yeah of course there are joining more and more people the crypto world.
I told everyone of my friends and family of crypto and steemit.
Many of them i‘ve Already convinced.
At least my biggest wish is to convince my father to give the crypto world a chance.
Unfortunately he is not very open minded towards these new technology at the current time..
I hope and I believe that I will convince him sooner or later!
Thanks for sharing these wonderful moments with us.
Wish you and your family all the best for the future and I‘m sure you will do a great job on steemit in the future as a content creator as well as a witness. :)
Thanks as always for your support and encouragement.
You're welcome my dear!
Have you already checked your wallet?
I left a little message and would be glad if you would read it. :)
Congratulations on a great vacation with your family and welcome back to Steemit. Get well soon from that stingtray sting (the name describes roles here).
And yeah, Corinne is gorgeous. A hearty welcome (back) to Kara on Steemit and best of luck to her. She seems to be a pretty decent artist and may be a good addition to the #art community here.
Awesome thanks for sharing. I agree what a wonderful vacation. I didn't know you can survive a stingray sting.
I hope she joins and gets active as well.
These are very nice pictures. I would like to travel with my little family to this beautiful place too. It would be very amazing
I must say thats really a nice painting she did, i hope your sister becomes more active on steemit. I'd love to surf someday too. Enjoy your holidays brother 😎
Thank you! It's been wonderful.
@lukestokes I really appreciate you showing me these pictures of Laguna Beach. I really love that place and many times I used to take dates to restaurants on the Ocean Front there when I lived in California. It is a Great Place to just to get Relaxed and stare out into the Ocean...........
Yeah, we had a great time.
Beautiful pictures! You have a wonderful family! I encourage your sister to start posting on steemit. I'm also new here, but I can see the potential of it and it's a great community here.

@lukestokes
it will be an extraordinary crypto year. An ever increasing number of individuals beginning to be keen on the crypto. Me and my companions have joined the crypto world a few months back and amid that time a large number of our companions have requested that us where begin from and how to join also. Indeed, even in my little state enthusiasm for crypto is picking up a considerable measure.
It's going to be a wild ride!
Very beautiful picture enjoy your life @lukestokes
Amazing pics of family and nature . I really like this and impressed by ur happy life thanks for posting this
