This past weekend my very best friend, the one and only Kelly Arthur came to visit, and we had the most fabulous time. A friend of mine from school had told me about a goat farm, that also had a cheese shop on the farm. Kelly is an Animal Sciences major at school, and loves all animals, but especially farm ones. (And dogs!) So we headed out West to a little town called Pescadero, which turned out to be the single most beautiful place on Earth. Just miles south of Half Moon Bay, this is a little farm town, just off the coast, and surrounded by nothing but nature for at least fifteen miles in each direction. After visiting the farm, we bought some cheese, some beer, and some crackers, and headed to the coast. Lucky for us it was freezing (California freezing....heard it was a blizzard in Colorado just the next day, hehe) so there was not a soul on the beach. Extra lucky for us, I had loads of clothes, and a spare quilt in the trunk of my car. It really made for the perfect day.
The Coast..
Kelly with the cow..
I love this one.
Goats!
Their cheese...Cranberry Walnut Goat Cheese. So yummy.
The Farm..
This one is super pregnant and super tired. Babies are coming around March 1st. I'll have to go back to see them...so precious.
I love these things. (And the yarn they make!)
Flowering Mustard Plants..
A House in Town.
Being a Colorado native, I think I'd seen the ocean less than ten times before I moved out here, and I can say I am officially obsessed. The Northern coast of California is just incredible. And the best place for knitting and eating.
We found a couple to take out picture - we were so cold! I had pants over shorts, Kelly had stacked on a few shirts, and my beautiful winter hat my Mom knit me. Freezing cold, but one of the best days. Ever.
Cheers.
