Enjoying Fresh Oysters at Oyster Farm in Tomales Bay, Marin Co., CA

My family went to Tomales Bay vicinity in Marin County, CA for on-site oysters eating experience in the summer of 2011.  It was the second time around for me and my son but it was the first experience for my husband.  My son enjoys the on-site oysters eating experience, he was looking forward to going back again.  I think it might be our annual outing for oysters from now on.

Geocaching Is Fun and Healthy Activity

Pichetti Winery Ranch 
This morning my family participated in a geocaching hike at Piccetti Ranch in Cupertino, CA, organized and sponsored by the Mid Peninsula Open Space Preserve (Mid-Pen Open Space for short) and REI.  It was our first time ever doing geocaching of any types.  Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting activity using GPS devices (handheld GPS, iPhone, or Android Phone). The basic idea is to locate hidden containers that may include family-friendly or general trinkets to trade (if you want), called geocaches.  They can be hidden anywhere outdoors - trails, creeks, parks, shopping malls, along freeways, in the water, just to name a few.  Geocaching is enjoyed by people from all age groups, with a strong sense of community and support for the environment.  There are over 1.3 million active geocaches and over 5 million geocachers worldwide according to Geocaching.com - the official geocaching website.
