365: #8 The Pond at Countrywood
- 07/27/10 05:23 PM
The pond at Countrywood Shopping Center, Walnut Creek CA, is a favorite sitting place for both young and old. Toddlers running around trying to catch the ducklings. Elderly resting in the shade on a wooden bench, people watchng. It's just one of the many place I like to go and do nothing, in Walnut Creek.
It really is as serene as it looks. It's also a great place to sit and get inspired for my Blog, 365 Things to do in Walnut Creek CA. What do you think? (2 comments)

365: #5 Another Fragrant Walnut Creek Weekend
- 07/25/10 06:55 PM
Growing up in Australia, I loved all the gardens and parks. That's probably one more thing I love about Walnut Creek. It has so many parks and gardens, just like back home. it's hard to turn a corner or go into a neighborhood and not see one. In my quest to share 365 Things to do in Walnut Creek CA, I thought I would add some photos I've taken. Someone once said a pictures is worth... well, you know how it goes.
This weekend was a very fragrant weekend.
It was bright and sunny (3 comments)
365: #4 Date Night in Walnut Creek, CA
- 07/23/10 02:41 PM
We all have busy lives. We have our To-Do lists and our calendars. We are so intent on getting all those things done, that we rush through each one just to get to the next one. Some days are worse than other. Imagine my delight when, right in the middle of going over the days To-Do's, my sweety said we were going to the movies for a date night. It brought me back to my senses. It's not about the To-Do's. it's about living life and enjoying it.
We left for the Century 14 Theater in Downtown Walnut Creek, during (4 comments)
Ever noticed how peaceful downtown is early in the morning. I was driving around taking random pictures to include in 365 Things to do in Walnut creek, CA when I noticed a bronze statue that I had seen numerous times but never paid that much attention to before. Without the distractions of the cars and the hustling shoppers, you notice so much more about your own hometown. I was curious about the statue, so I tried Googling it. I came up empty. Rather than keep searching, I thought I'd put it out there for anyone out there to share (3 comments)
When was the last time you went to the library? Over the last decade or so, technology has brought the library to us. Before Google and the internet with it's search engines, the library was the go-to place. It used to be the community's "famiy room". Now with the new Walnut Creek Library and it's hi-tech amenities, works of art, and "marketplace", we've come full circle...at least, that's the idea. The Grand Opening is scheduled for July 17 2010 at 10 am Saturday morning.For more on this event: http://newwclibrary.org/
This new Library began in 1991, 30 years (1 comments)
365: 365 Things to do in Walnut Creek, CA
- 07/13/10 02:34 AM
I just love it here in Walnut Creek CA, and I want to spread the word about how great it is living here. I don't know everything there is to know about Walnut Creek because there is so much but I would love to learn more. For me everything begins with a good sunrise. So this blog should too. Anyone know where the best spots are in Walnut Creek to watch the sunrise? For me, driving down Ygnacio Valley Rd towards Clayton, I've been blasted with some of the most spectacular sunrises. I'm not sure if I'm still in Walnut Creek (9 comments)
