Last weekend we drove across the city to the mountain town of Oak Glen - beautiful!. It was so refreshing to be away from the hustle and bustle, breathing in the air and enjoying the lovely green surroundings. I am always amazed that places like this are so close to the busy city. My mom had come up for the weekend so she came along on our adventure. Our first stop was Snow Line Orchard where we picked raspberries, met a llama, a fat goat, a couple of mini horses, and one lazy dog. We also shopped at the "old timey" market, devoured the homemade doughnuts and tasted the many varieties of apples. Doesn't that sound delightful?
The fun didn't stop there. After we topped off our baskets (and eaten our fill) of raspberries, we headed down the road to Riley's at Los Rios Ranchos for a proper BBQ lunch. Unfortunately we were too full for the baked items although by the the time we got home I was regretting not buying one of the scrumptious looking apple pies - what was I thinking! While we ate we were entertained by some beautiful music and people watching. It was a lovely day for all. I love living near the ocean but maybe I am a little bit country too!

It really was a wonderful day! Thank you to all who planned such a fun activity. I hope we make it a yearly tradition.

Wow, Lyla has changed a lot since I last saw a picture of her. What a honey!!
I will take some pictures of color around here and send them if I can figure out how to do it. I couldn't see color in the tree picture.
Thanks for the great chat tonight.
