Over the past 3 weeks, we have been slowly moving from Fair Oaks to Davis, CA. Our new home is less than 2 miles from the beautiful Davis Waldorf School, where Rick will be teaching Grade 6 in the Fall.
Davis is a pretty town, with over 100 miles of bike paths, a farmer's market twice per week, art center, natural food co-op, and the University of California. Jennifer and Rick met at UC Davis 22 years ago and got married on campus, so the town is a special place. And, Davis is just 20 minutes from downtown Sacramento, so we are still close to family, friends and conveniences.
The kids are enjoy riding their bikes and walking down a bike path at the end of our street to the nearby park and pool.
Seeds and transplants from the old garden were started in the new yard right away. Looks like we might get some pumpkins, peppers, strawberries, tomatoes and herbs! Plans are in place to expand gardening from containers to a larger area for the Winter crop. We will miss the garden in Fair Oaks (look at the amazing harvest picture...what a pumpkin!).
Our favorite park!
We took Grandma and Grandpa from So. California, and Auntie Jess who is in podiatry school, to a nearby park.
These strawberries were from the farmer's market. Sooo sweet!
Kids are happy, Rick's classroom is looking terrific, and our cat Sammy had 4 baby kittens during our last night in Fair Oaks. They are growing quickly! We are so grateful to be here in Davis.
