This guy was hanging out in the stables a couple hundred yards away, a nice Tennessee Walker.















The view out the kitchen window.
















" Who's he kidding, everyone knows my dad doesn't consult a map!"

These chairs in the warm fall sunshine sucked us in for a bit, after the yoga class the girls were tired, but not so tired to miss a five mile hike on the beach with some sweet tidepools.









Tidepool jumpin', adventure seekin', yoga stretchin' Little C.



Nice spot for a rest interval.
10 sprintys and I was done and back at the trailer, catching up on a classic read that I've been meaning to finish-

where was this slice of heaven??

10 miles south of Pescadero.

Interesting place, it is a kind of back to nature place with a spa, saunas in each comfort station, a lodge, naturalist-led hikes every day.
Tent cabins, a lodge, and somehow a campground thrown into the mix.
We had a mini-family reunion there a few years ago.
We'll be back for sure.

That place is looking pretty deserving of a visit from the Nome family.
