Took a trip up the road and into the mountains. Turns out that this little gem is hidden in them there hills. Actually, a couple of falls are situated at the end of a short decent-heavy hike. Easy in, but quite full of uphill on the way out. The road is dicey, as coast range routes should be. Walked out of that range a time or two. Stood behind the falls and soaked in the disorienting perspective.
In other news, fall seems to be bearing down upon the mid-valley. The light is shifting, and the late summer wildfires are adding to the mix. Smoke and celestial travel led to a rather magnificent set of recent sunsets.
The property has been taking more than its fair share of time. Finally decided to resume a favorite pastime, and took the Trucker up into the surrounding hills. Gravel grinders, map-less wanderings, and perfect weather combined to make one of the best rides in recent memory.
Why this locale? We stayed here a few years back. Old grain silos converted to lodging. Even met a guy who's purported job was teaching athletes to run like cheetahs. Much wine involved, but his gig seemed legit.
Returned home to wander the town, taste a few new-to-us wineries, and read the buzz away in the hammock. Then...music.
Those in the know...yep, Teisco, indeed. Garage sale...15 bucks. Sings like a songbird.
