There is a very special place around here and it's called Slide Ranch. This past weekend, the big guy took some of the little guys and headed out there for what was supposed to be a family campout. Unfortunately, the rains dampened that plan but the good people out on the ranch still hosted everyone for an abbreviated four-hour day on the farm.
The kids came home wet and dirty just like I like them. They talked of hiking to the fennel forest, playing with chickens, milking goats and eating fresh baked pumpkin bread with hot cocoa while sitting on the cliff, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
Ahhhh....
"For a lot of kids in the Bay Area, the environment seems like a distant thing that just isn't relevant in their day-to-day lives. Slide Ranch, located on the dramatic Marin coast, connects visitors with the natural world and teaches kids about their interdependence with the environment.
Spend the day exploring the intersection of cultivated and wild lands: in the organic garden, walking the trails, milking a goat and feeding the chickens or just sitting on the bluff above the roaring ocean. Learn how our choices impact our health and the health of the planet."

Meet three of my all-time favorite people: Mr. Noodle, Miss Frijoles and The 8 year old.
This looks like an amazing place to visit! I'm also so excited to see a picture of Miss Frijoles on here!
