Great weather for those celebrating Mothers Day in Ventura

VENTURA, Calif. – It was a busy and beautiful Mother’s Day up and down the coast.

Ventura Harbor Cove at the Ventura Harbor saw steady crowds throughout the day. State Street in Santa Barbara was also reported to be busy. Families and friends gathered at the Harbor Cove Café in Ventura to celebrate mothers and loved ones. Many enjoyed live music under picture-perfect weather and shared fond memories of their moms.

One visitor talked about meaningful trips with her mother.

“I remember that after my dad died, I was working at a medical school in North Carolina, and every year I would travel to a conference that alternated between locations in the United States and Canada,” said Lauren Whetstone, who flew into Santa Barbara Airport on Saturday night. “My mom would fly out to join me, and we got to explore amazing places like Montreal, Quebec, and Nova Scotia. One of my favorite things about my mom is that she’s always up for anything—any adventure.”
