Under the Solano Sun

It seems as though it was just yesterday that the weather was cold, windy, and drizzly; right now, it's just windy and a little chilly! Just the right weather to garden without layers of clothing on with the sunshine glowing brightly.

My husband and I recently returned from a trip to the Galapagos Islands. The adventure was remarkable and fast paced. We are still mentally sorting out our experiences and memories. We treasure the opportunity we had to see so many different animals in their natural habitat.

During Martin Luther King, Jr. weekend in January 2018, I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a mushroom camp put on by the Sonoma County Mycological Association (SOMA) at the Catholic Charities CYO camp in Occidental, California (I assume SOMA leases the space for the mushroom camp).
