We scored! Back in 2008 when we were here in The Redwoods we camped in a grove of redwoods in our little tent. We remembered that it was in one of the state parks along The Avenue of the Giants but we couldn't remember which campground. Yesterday we visited three...
We two immersed ourselves in soothing waters at Watercourse Way again this morning. Then Karen walked out to meet Lou and savor a cup of jasmine tea while Steve stayed and enjoyed a massage. It's a nice relaxing way to enjoy one of the comforts of our mountain house...
Meg and Jason took us to the observatory at Foothill College this morning. Our docent was the VP of the Peninsula Astronomical Society. We truly enjoyed looking at sunspots and solar flares, learning about The Carrington Event, and listening to the acoustic effects of...
After a leisurely time spent over coffee this morning we headed for the coast to see some of Lou's favorite spots. Bean Hollow Beach was enchanting. We can see why she would spend hours on end here! We got to see harbor seals on the rocks and walk amid amazing...
Trying to find a restaurant for a birthday dinner turned into an adventure in and of itself. It wasn't until the third try that we found folks we really wanted to serve us. For a while it seemed as if the answer to Paul Mc Cartney's query, "Will you still feed me,...
What a delightful way to spend a summer's Saturday evening. We went to the ballgame. We enjoyed delightful weather while watching the home team hosting the Stockton Ports from the general admission bleachers in right field. It was fun to be among young families,...
We ventured out on a walking adventure to downtown Mountain View. We lingered over Tapas and Sangria at Cascal's then wandered to the East West Bookstore where we scored a luscious filmy royal blue silk scarf. At Book Buyers we found two seasons of Indiana Jones on...
After catching on laundry, we left Petaluma this morning and headed up US-101 and marveled at the vineyards and the green and gold hills. We also wondered if this six lane divided highway was the road that we remembered wending it's way through the giant redwoods. As...
It's time for lunch and Castro Street is so close! What choice could we make but to walk a mile and choose from a wonderful selection of restaurants? We chose the Irish pub and opted for the outdoor seating. From there we could see and hear some of the coverage of the...
Named for the coastal fog, this is a delightful little winery. No associated vineyard but there is a pretty garden and benches. Sharon is a gracious host. We two did not make it through a full wine tasting and were grateful that Lou had abstained. We did come away...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
