Templeton, California. The roadside bemusement continues. Anyone else include Ag tourism as part of your adventures?? We have a few farmers and ranchers in our own family, so YES we love a good Agriculture lesson woven in to our travels. We did not initially equate this area as a dairy industry leader, but we came to find there are tons of cattle ranches, creameries and dairy farms all over. And we did lots of sampling, of course! 🐄 .

McFarland, California. ..... When in McFarland, take the time to go for a run. This one is for all our fellow high school cross country runners- This highway overpass Art installment is always a treat to see when heading down Hwy99. This time we stopped the car and ran across the overpass too (I-spy our kiddo here) 🏃 .
For those who are confused, McFarland was put on celebrity status with their Kevin Costner-starring-movie by the same name. It’s the story of a HS XC team put together from the farming fields that when on to be state champions. Being a XC runner from a small farming town myself, well..... naturally it brings all the warm fuzzies. 🏃‍♀️ .

Davis, California (part 2). Steps from home, yet a first class education of the world. Davis is a well-crafted incubator of love, community, diversity, inclusion and all those other ingredients the expand the mind, expand the heart. Visiting is worth the trip, worth the adventure. 🌎 . .
This image we snapped today is in honor and remembrance of Officer Natalie Corona. Found as we strolled the UCDavis Arboretum, there are hundreds of locks on either side of many bridges. This particular lock stood out, however: Unique, apart from the crowd, stunningly beautiful, and the biggest heart to be found. 🌎 . .
