It’s that time of year again in Tiburon, California – THE TIBURON CLASSIC CAR SHOW. With an amazingly beautiful location along the waterfront and the Golden Gate Bridge in the background, afionadods bring out their favorite cars. From the newest, fastest McLaren and Ferrari to an old classic Cadillac convertible, a classic 60s Porsche to a well used motorcycle, a 60s “woody wagon” to a classic MG, there is something to fascinate everyone. Add food trucks, vendors and music and you have a fun day by the Bay in a spectacular setting. You can even take the ferry boat to get there!

Wow! What a day!
May 18, 2017The sky is blue. The sun is shining. On such a gorgeous San Francisco day it is hard to find a prettier location than Lands End. Located at the westernmost tip of San Francisco, the vistas are amazing. Whether you gaze at the Marin Headlands or back at the Golden Gate Bridge, this is the weather to enjoy such a unique spot. The trail is well groomed and a little over a mile so an easy walk with many view benches along the way. Or just spend some quiet time reflecting on the beauty or watching the ships pass under the mighty Golden Gate. In the mood for culture? Visit the Palace of the Legion of Honor. Beautiful exhibits and a beautiful building. Lands End is a special spot on a sunny day.
FUN IN THE CENTRAL PARK SNOW
February 16, 2017With so much snow on the ground in Central Park, it is takes a major effort to keep the park clean, accessible and ready for winter fun. The Central Park Conservancy works hard all year to keep the park beautiful, but it takes an extra effort during winter. There is so much to enjoy in a snow covered Central Park. There is ice skating at Wollman Rink, Lasker Rink or the Conservatory Water. You can cross country ski through the meadows and on the bridal paths. And there is sledding on Pilgrim Hill and Cedar Hill. There are ice festivals, a fitness series, walks and guided tours of the winter park. For a complete list of activities, visit the Central Park Conservancy website and then visit the park! Spring and the explosion of daffodils and tulips are just around the corner.

LITTLE FREE LIBRARY
October 29, 2016What fun is the neighborhood Little Free Library! While on a walk in Venice, California, we came upon two neighborhood library boxes in one block. Small little boxes resembling large mail boxes where you can drop off a favorite book or pick up something new to read. They are everywhere! And not just in Venice. They are so friendly and so inviting and such a “neighborly” idea that every neighborhood should have them. What a great way to share a good book or discover a new author. Keep reading and be neighborly!!
