These are a few of our favorite things.
The 3rd Annual Chocolate & Beer Festival is tomorrow SAT Feb 11 from 2 to 6pm
at The Craneway Pavilion near Pt. Richmond.

This event is for everyone who has a sweet tooth
or appreciates good brew. It brings together the
tastes we love - chocolate and beer – and live music!
Two of my neighbors are local entrepreneurs
with a very popular Rockridge establishment.
Bittersweet Chocolate Cafe www.bittersweetcafe.com
Their chocolate cafe is among the local
chocolatiers showing off their tasty treats
at The Craneway’s Chocolate & Beer Festival.
And then there’s the beer from local breweries…
where do I begin?
Taste and compare for yourself!
Proceeds from Craneway’s Chocolate & Beer Festival
go to the Children’s Learning Center, which provides
quality alternative education for children with
special needs.
See you there!

TAKE TIME TO WALK ON THE WILD SIDE
Posted in FUN THINGS TO DO on December 21, 2011 by Julie Nachtwey, the Claremont Hills Real Estate ExpertDuring the holidays, take time to walk in the wild with your family and friends.
Our family recently enjoyed both a visit to the Oakland Museum and a breath-taking hike through Muir Woods. Here are more details on both adventures!
OAKLAND MUSEUM
A Walk in the Wild: Continuing John Muir’s Journey
Oakland Museum of California’s multi-sensory exhibit has extended holiday hours MON-TUES DEC 26-27 from 11am to 5pm
On Saturdays docent-led tours start at 3pm. The exhibit runs through January 22, 2012 http://museumca.org/muir
“Explore the legacy of John Muir’s life and
how he continues to influence our relationship
with the natural world in the first-ever museum exhibition of its kind.”
Muir Woods National Monument
We hiked along a three-mile ridge trail that was breath-taking. Many walking trails are available. Some of the old-growth redwood trees are more than 1,200 years old. http://www.nps.gov/muwo/index.htm
At the turn of the century, the forest was doomed when plans were made to dam Redwood Creek and create a lake. President Theodore Roosevelt used the powers of the Antiquities Act on January 9, 1908, to create Muir Woods National Monument. Kent, requested that it be named for noted conservationist John Muir.
“This is the best tree-lovers monument that
could possibly be found in all the forests
of the world.” – John Muir
