Last week, the husband and I checked out the bird house display in She's windows. The very cool birdhouses were built by local David Guttirez. Also, cool was the fact that the ladies at the shop let us step into the window so I could take a photo.
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.

A Kooky Glimpse of Main Street
Or, maybe it's just an image taken by a kooky photographer. It's all how you look at things, no? This is the corner of Sixth and San Benito Streets in downtown Hollister.
Take 25 is participating in ABC Wednesday, a weekly meme hosted by Mrs. Nesbitt and her friends. Today is the letter K. To check out other K posts, please click here.

Wandering in Tres Pinos
 |
| A side street on the north side of downtown Tres Pinos. |
Tres Pinos is the fourth biggest town in San Benito County. The population is 500, more or less. Highway 25 runs right through it. For a small community, it has several eateries. So, it's a great place to stop and grab a bite or wet your whistle when you're touring the back roads of the county.

Where to Walk in Hollister?
Downtown Hollister is a nice place for walking, alone or with a friend or two.
The YMCA hosts walks on Friday mornings. For more about the walks, click over to this page at the Hollister Downtown Association. You can also download a brochure of suggested short walks, such as the 1.3 mile Historic District Walk, which you can do on your own.
