Most of our meals are served on the deck, or on the patio, and we love grilling and picnics! Continue reading

For Hike Number 22, I drove to San Mateo County, just north of Santa Clara County, in Northern California. An easy drive up the 280 Freeway, very quick exit onto CA 92, and then a windy, foggy drive on Skyline Boulevard took me to Purisima Creek Redwoods OSP. Continue reading
