carpinteria creek
Carpinteria Creek starts 4,690 feet above
Carpinteria in the Santa Ynez Mountains
and travels through town and Carpinteria State Beach
where it empties into the ocean. Carpinteria Creek
is one of the few non-channelized creeks in the area,
meaning that it has not been paved over for flood control.
This makes Carpinteria Creek the natural choice
for the effort to bring Steelhead Trout back from near
extinction. Spend an afternoon on the Eighth Street
footbridge, and you may spy one of the rainbow fish.
The variety of trees shading and sheltering the waterway
makes it a haven for bird watchers.

salt marsh nature park
Situated on the west side of town, the
Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park is one of
the few remaining wetlands in California. This critically
important habitat encompasses 230 acres and includes
eight acres of a developed area with paths and
interpretative signs. Peaceful, serene and gorgeous,
Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park teems with native
plant and animal life. (Keep an eye out for the Pigmy
Blue Butterfly.) Here’s a hint: Early mornings are the
best time for bird watching. Located on Ash Avenue
near Sandyland Road, there are docent-led tours on
Saturday mornings.

seal sanctuary
There’s a stretch of beach along the
Carpinteria coast that is closed from
December to May. It is where Harbor Seals come to
give birth and prepare pups for their own life at sea.
Situated east of Casitas Pier, between Carpinteria
Bluffs Nature Park and Carpinteria State Park, this
marvel of nature can be observed from the above
cliffs. Humans are welcome, canines are not. Seal

portola sycamore
One Carpinteria tree towers above all the
rest, and we don’t just mean in height. Documented
at over 250 years old, the Portola Sycamore
(western sycamore, Platannus racemosa) is located
on the lower extension of Sixth Street, east of Palm
Avenue. The trunk diameter is close to six feet and
its height is 78 feet. It is believed that this tree is the
only remaining one of a grove where Chumash Indians
constructed canoes when the Spanish explorer Gaspar
de Portola arrived.

A trail made of compacted decomposed granite

BELOW AND OPPOSITE PAGE, part of the fun in collecting sea
glass is contemplating its history. These gems from McGrath’s
collection, left, and Werts’ collection, right, originated as stoppers
for apothecary bottles, the bases and necks of bottles, and a few
glass objects whose function or shape can only be imagined now.
love story delivered by the tide.
McGrath’s powerful collection helped arouse
the beach comber in Werts. The women first met
when their children attended school together in the
1990s, and McGrath later started a marketing business
with Werts’ husband. Five or six years ago,
when they were more acquaintances than friends,
Werts was given a glimpse of McGrath’s collection.
Her casual tendency to pick up the occasional piece
of sea glass while running on the beach quickly
spiraled into what she laughingly refers to as a
healthy neurosis.
“It’s a total win-win. There’s not a negative thing
about it,” Werts says. By collecting something that
started as someone’s trash and was slowly transformed
into her treasure, she considers the act a
beach clean up of the best kind.
McGrath concurs. “It’s the perfect combination
of man and nature. It’s a man made object; then it
becomes a jewel through nature.”
Through the years, Werts and McGrath have
roamed the beaches together, alone, and with other
friends and family members. They walk quickly
through the sandy patches, and slow down to scour
each rocky patch that the waves have exposed.
Sharing a glass hunt along the shore with people
they love heightens the experience. “It’s therapeutic
and bonding and meditative,” Werts says. “People
who really get the same rhythm are really fun to be
with. It’s like a dance.”
The love of the hunt has found both women ankle
deep in sand and salt water on foreign shores.
McGrath recently tolerated the puzzled looks of
local Slovenians as she collected glass along the
Adriatic Sea, and Werts has discovered that Costa
Rica can offer many fine shells but much less sea
glass than the California coast. And though both
women have added beach combing to travel itineraries,

You’re from New Jersey. How did you find your way to Hollywood?
Oh, [laughs] let me stop and think. That was a long time ago. I always wanted to be an
actress. I was one of those people who always knew what he or she wanted to do in life.
I went to college at Stephens College in Missouri and majored in theatre. As soon as I got
out of college I came to Los Angeles. I was very lucky, within a year I started working –
steadily. I’ve never not worked. There was a period time I stopped acting for five years and
I was producing. Then, I got an offer to do the show I do now [“The Bold and the Beautiful”].

faithful? Just about everything.
But the crowds at Cleveland Browns Stadium and Carpinteria
Valley Memorial Stadium have two things in common: a love of
football and a love of linebacker Chris Gocong—the 27-year-old
CHS grad who went from crushing high school opponents for
the Warriors to strapping on the orange helmet of the Browns
and clashing with the likes of New England Patriots quarterback
Tom Brady, who Gocong threw to the field in his first NFL
sack.
Of his newest fans in Cleveland, Gocong says he enjoys
their zeal, and as a professional player, he performs for the
hometown crowd. He did the same for Philadelphia fans when
he played four seasons as a Philadelphia Eagle (2006-2010).
Cleveland has been a tortured but faithful football town, and
Gocong says he and teammates plan to make the city proud.
“It’s a huge football town. They need a team that’s gonna win it
all,” he says.
A six-year professional career has landed Gocong in the east,

The first time I watched photographer Dan Harding at work, he was
bobbing beneath the 40-foot-high rock arch on the east end of Anacapa Island. At
the time I didn’t know of Harding’s prowess as a lensmen. Six months later I ran into
him again on Anacapa, now fully appreciative of his nature photography.
The late ocean explorer Jacque Cousteau considered the Channel Islands as one
of his top 10 coldwater diving locales. He was an early inspiration to Harding, so it’s
not surprising the Channel Islands National Park is one of Harding’s favorite places
to shoot. A scuba diver since his teens, Harding built his own plexiglass housings
for Instamatic cameras in the 1960s, camping and diving when abalone and fish
populations were off the charts.
“I wanted to shoot underwater photos,” recalled Harding. “So I started making
my own housings.”
After college, he and his wife moved to the U.S. Virgin Islands to teach, and then
moved to Micronesia. Harding documented both tropical stops, but the Channel
Islands always tugged on his heart.
“My inspiration now is to showcase the recovery of the marine environment,”
continued Harding, “as we start to do a better job of protecting it.”
Some of Harding’s best imagery is with the subject halfway above and below
the surface of the water. Working with a 17 to 40mm wide-angle lens secured in an
Ikelite housing, Harding constantly searches out compositions with extremely clear
water. Something typically offered around the Channel Islands.
“I hope to capture fresh viewpoints that make the viewer think. I want my
audience to be challenged,” said Harding. “Sometimes I see a composition
that has likely existed for eons but has never been captured before. That is my
continuing quest.”

Story by Amy orozco
Photos by LindSey eLtinge
f the sound of silver
bangles is calling your
name or the eye longs to
catch a shimmer of light,
Carpinteria is an ideal
place to hunt down a
perfect piece of the
fashioned ore.
Find Gossamer-like
filigreed pieces to
celebrations of unadorned
sterling—and everything
in between. Rings with
precious stones, flirty
bracelets, pendants with
panache, and couture
accessories take up
temporary residence in
many Carpinteria shops.
Isn’t it time to give them a
permanent home in a jewelry
box to call their own?

carpinteria creek
Carpinteria Creek starts 4,690 feet above
Carpinteria in the Santa Ynez Mountains
and travels through town and Carpinteria State Beach
where it empties into the ocean. Carpinteria Creek
is one of the few non-channelized creeks in the area,
meaning that it has not been paved over for flood control.
This makes Carpinteria Creek the natural choice
for the effort to bring Steelhead Trout back from near
extinction. Spend an afternoon on the Eighth Street
footbridge, and you may spy one of the rainbow fish.
The variety of trees shading and sheltering the waterway
makes it a haven for bird watchers.

salt marsh nature park
Situated on the west side of town, the
Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park is one of
the few remaining wetlands in California. This critically
important habitat encompasses 230 acres and includes
eight acres of a developed area with paths and
interpretative signs. Peaceful, serene and gorgeous,
Carpinteria Salt Marsh Nature Park teems with native
plant and animal life. (Keep an eye out for the Pigmy
Blue Butterfly.) Here’s a hint: Early mornings are the
best time for bird watching. Located on Ash Avenue
near Sandyland Road, there are docent-led tours on
Saturday mornings.

seal sanctuary
There’s a stretch of beach along the
Carpinteria coast that is closed from
December to May. It is where Harbor Seals come to
give birth and prepare pups for their own life at sea.
Situated east of Casitas Pier, between Carpinteria
Bluffs Nature Park and Carpinteria State Park, this
marvel of nature can be observed from the above
cliffs. Humans are welcome, canines are not. Seal
Watch volunteers typically are monitoring activities Carpinteria City Beach is the perfect place to do it.
during daylight in seal season.
You can kayak out to the reef for some snorkeling with
the marine life and say “hi” to some dolphins on your

portola sycamore
One Carpinteria tree towers above all the
rest, and we don’t just mean in height. Documented
at over 250 years old, the Portola Sycamore
(western sycamore, Platannus racemosa) is located
on the lower extension of Sixth Street, east of Palm
Avenue. The trunk diameter is close to six feet and
its height is 78 feet. It is believed that this tree is the
only remaining one of a grove where Chumash Indians
constructed canoes when the Spanish explorer Gaspar
de Portola arrived.

way there. A leisurely swim out to the summer floats
or sitting in the sand and watching it all, the choices
are endless and yours to make.

coastal vista trail
A trail made of compacted decomposed granite
that winds with the curves of land and sea
is perfect for a casual bike ride or walk. Though the
trail is short, eventually the trail will extend along the
entire Carpinteria coast. Enjoy the mountain and ocean
views; count White Tail Kites; or witness a seal pup
birth. Access the trail from the Bluffs parking lot at the
foot of Bailard Avenue.
