Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

100 Things I Like: The Food Gatherers
It's September. It's harvest time. Give thanks! to all the workers who are out there picking and gathering the vegetables and fruits for our bellies. There is nothing easy about their jobs.
To get this photo, I leaned out the car window and snapped away as the husband drove east on Highway 156 through San Juan Valley.

The cutest thing about Take 25 is your husband and the things he would do for you.

oceangirl, I totally agree. There would be no fun doing Take 25 without him.
ReplyDeleteHey Don! Do you know putting in a nonsequitur like this is really spam? You could've sent this press release to me and I would've done a post about it. You might've gotten more people reading about it that way on Take 25. Next time, regardless of whether I like the announcement, I'm deleting it. Write to me. I don't bite. Rfff! Rfff!
