Francisco’s Fruits

2016 Out West, California, Road Trip

This morning is a good time to move on. The KOA is packed with weekend revelers including some who believe that the ban on campfires doesn’t apply to them. And the forecast is for red flag conditions, hot, dry, and windy. So we are traveling east through the fertile Santa Clara Valley marveling at the lush orchards and fields. Noticing farm stands offering oranges, avocados, pistachios, and more. We pulled into Francisco’s Fruits just outside of Fillmore and got some goodies for ourselves. Local tomatoes, strawberries, Asian pears, and dried apples, strawberries, vegetable chips, and pistachios. We’re in snacking heaven!

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
