Ocean Beach has many skateboarders roaming around the area. There is a big skate park (the only one in San Diego) and when there are special events, you'll see them in the parking lot near the beach. 

See this 4 year old-looking skateboarder skate like a pro.

The town has put up decorations on Newport Ave. with red holiday bows and a big sign that says "Happy OB Holidays". How welcoming!

As I was driving to work early today, I felt so at peace with Ocean Beach's quiet streets. As I watched pet owners walking their dogs in the morning, it made me feel so proud to live here.

Residents who live here look more fit and are such great dog lovers like we are. It made me feel like we belong where we are.

It's been two months since we've lived in Ocean Beach and we love every minute of it. We used to live in Pacific Beach where there were younger people who are really obnoxious and do...

We went fishing on the Ocean Beach Pier earlier this week and had a very successful night. My husband caught a leopard shark, sting ray and a croaker fish. I caught one croaker fish as well.

Here's how they looked like.

Right when we got home, my husband beheaded, descaled and gutted the fishes. I mixed flour, garlic powder and season salt and batter the fish in it. Then we pan fried it in vegetable oil. We ate it just like that. It was fresh and delicious. Wa...

We picked up a new hobby after we moved to OB. It's fishing! We found out that you don't need a fishing license to fish on the pier so we bought a couple of fishing hooks and met with our buddy who is the expert in fishing. On our first trip, we caught a leopard shark and my husband's friends caught a sting ray and guitar fish. See the picture of the guitar fish below.

Our friend caught this guitar fish around 8pm on June 28th, 2012


We started fishing around 6pm. It was a pretty day. (view from...

There's a little private beach area near that cliffs where you can relax with your loved ones. Although the space is small, it is a great secret place to visit. You'll need to explore around to find this little beach area? Have you found it already? Make your way out to Sunset Cliffs and post a comment here if you've located this spot.

I don't work today because it's Saturday so I took our chow chow to the dog park in Ocean Beach. He got tired after 20 minutes of playing with other dogs. On our drive back home from the park, I was so happy it turned out to be such a great morning. Happy non-June Gloom day Ocean Beach! Come out and play everyone!

It's another June Gloom day and as I was driving home from work I see the banner about the Chili Cook-Off taking place in a couple of weeks on June 23, 2012. It is one of the biggest events in OB. Even though it was a gloomy day, seeing this sign cheered me up. You get to be the judge of who makes the best chili while listening to bands play on 6 different stages. Come to OB on Newport Ave. and check it out if you haven't before. It's happening in a couple of weeks from today.

Yesterday, my fiance and I walked down to the Sunset Cliffs (in OB) after a salmon dinner I cooked at home. Even though it's June Gloom, the view is still spectacular. A lot of couples sat on the cliffs to have a conversation. It was really romantic. One thing to note is when you walk down the steps from Narragansett Ave., watch out for the waves and time it right because you can really get splashed!

The weather is really nice here in Ocean Beach today. It's super sunny and many of the residents are walking their dog around town. I love OB.
