California's Central Coast - Part 2 - Hearst Castle
We recently took a trip to California's Central Coast for a couple of days.  We were experiencing our first real heat wave here in the Central Valley and decided a trip to the much cooler coast would be a good idea.  The day time temperatures were going to break 100° for several days in a row.  It's not unusual for us to head over to the coast when that happens.  While it's over 100° here in the Central Valley it's usually in the 60's on the coast.
California's Central Coast stretches roughly from Santa … (12 comments)

central valley of california: Stanislaus County Short Sales - No snow for you! - 02/28/11 09:56 AM
Stanislaus County Short Sales - No snow for you!
Well the weather forecasters got it wrong this weekend.  It was all over the news last week that the Central Valley of California might actually get some snow.  The last time Stanislaus county got any significant snow was way back in the mid 70's.  I remember that storm like it was yesterday.
All the prognosticators were saying that the storm coming in from Canada starting on last Friday was going to bring cold temperatures, lots of moisture and a very good chance of snow down to about the 100' elevation.  The valley … (2 comments)
