@showmom858 - indeed Carlsbad was gloomy!!

All the locals/natives also suggested September/October. Won’t happen this year, but I will definitely keep that in mind going forward! We aren’t tied to a summer vacation schedule but need to visit my mil during that time of year this year.

I was pretty chilly the whole time. The lack of sunshine and the temps not quite hitting 70 degrees were just a mental block for me, I think! I’m used to upper 80s/low 90s with considerable higher heat indices. By comparison, 68 degrees is “cold.”

I had balked at the idea of taking my black leather jacket. Just seemed “wrong” for June. However, when we met and went out with some of ds’s friends, two of the young women not only had on black leather jackets but also little booties!
