In the center of this photo is The Marion Davies Estate (which served as the Guest House) at the former William Randolph Hearst's Beach Compound. The building is newly restored and open to the public for tours.
This is the newly built Santa Monica Community Beach House built on the footprint of William Randolph Hearst's mansion which is represented by the tall white pillars that are the same size and configuration of the pillars of his mansion.
(I just love these orange umbrellas, market umbrellas make me inexplicably happy.)This is the view looking west onto the Pacific Ocean.
Thank you to Martha for hosting The Color Carnival and you for your visit. My best to you for a great weekend and week too!

Looks like a great place to visit! You made it just in time this week since I'm only featuring the first 12 for this week. Have a great weekend Martha :-)
It's amazing to me that some people actually lived like that. Beautiful, Happy Pink Saturday, Char
Wow!! That is absolutely gorgeous. I am very much craving the beach right now.
I wish I was there!
The Pacific is always lovely. Thanks for sharing your vacation images!
Those are some happy umbrellas!
Looks like a lot of fun!
Thanks for the great tour. I'm still making my PS visits and am glad that I got to read this one too!
If you have the time, please visit The Old Parsonage. I love company!
Happy PS (1 day late)

GORGEOUS! Makes me wish I could visit there!
I also love to be at the beach whenever I can. Those are lovely colorful umbrellas, wish to have one.

That place looks fabulous. The leaves are changing color over here, and it's getting cold at night...Boo!
so beautiful... it looks so lovely!
Looks so relaxing! This post has gotten me motivated to start planning a vacation to somewhere that will break up the long Michigan winter months for sure! The photo of the Pacific looks so tranquil...what a great time you must have had!
Martha, your post put me running for my photography of last years holidays in U.S.A. We had a visit to Hearst Castle, so I am wondering now, if I could have been on that lovely beach.
The Beach is perfect any time!!
excuse me while I sit awhile and enjoy the view.... :)
