Calistoga

We have some lucky kids, growing up in the Bay Area with so much to see, do and experience right at our fingertips.  In under an hour, in any direction you go, you are bound to find yourself someplace magnificent.  Holding true to one of our New Year's resolutions, we have been exploring new sights and places on the weekends ... and loving every minute of it.

Yesterday, we decided to spend the day in Calistoga and see the Old Faithful Geyser of California.  Every five minutes the geyser shoots up a tower of water from the earth. So cool!  Not to mention it's in the heart of wine country and set in front of a gorgeous backdrop. 



After watching the geyser shoot up several times, we walked over to feed the sheep and goats on the property.  Jackson is one brave dude, Lucca a little (lot) more hesitant.  Like her mom???





I mean, really.  How gorgeous is this place? 


After our stop at Old Faithful, we drove into the town of Calistoga and had lunch at a cute deli.  We got a treat at a bakery after lunch and at that point, Lucca pretty much thought she made it to heaven.

Days like these make me so very thankful for my sweet little family.
