Pescadero

While walking with Charlie one morning, my neighbor told me about Pescadero.  She says I should take my kids to the beach near Pescadero.  There are lots things to explore.  So, the next free weekend I can find, we headed toward Pescadero.  

Here is what we discovered about the town....

Pescadero is established in 1856, it is nestled between the ancient towering redwood forests and the pristine coastline, offering miles of hiking trails and endless wind swept beaches.  The town, with its historic frame houses and steeple churches grew from a single adoble dwelling on a Mexican rancho in the late 1840's.  Pescadero, accessible by stagecoatch from San Francisco, became a fashionable country "resort".  Local produce including artichokes, kiwis and olalliberries, as well as locally produced goat cheese and artisan breads. We took a stroll down the Old Stage Road, and discovered small shops, wood-fired pizzas, artichoke bread.  It was a peaceful and we enjoyed the beauty of Pescadero.
