Merry Christmas Everyone!

With six kids and twenty grandkids, Jim and Teresa just had to have a cabin.  This was only about half their family celebrating Thanksgiving at the cabin this year.  They love nature and want those grandkids out there climbing trees, seeing the wildlife, and experiencing all the Four Season fun that Palomar has to offer.  Jim is having a great time with his new telescope and they are both ‘birders’ so have lots to watch from their deck.  Jim is one of those guys that can do anything as a General Manager of a Plumbing Company.  Teresa has lots of projects planned to keep him busy at the cabin.  She is a Bakery Field Manager for Vons.   She is looking forward to lots of baking at the cabin, meeting the neighbors, and attending the mountain happenings.  One thing for sure, and speaking from experience, it can be a very yummy stop to pop in for a visit!

A couple years ago the ‘Treasures’ were up (oh, you know – our grandkids).  We took them over to the Palomar Mountain Ranch.  When our then 4 year old granddaughter climbed up the steps of the caboose, she turned around and said: “May I have your ticket please?”

A ticket is waiting for your tour, as Palomar Mountain Ranch is indeed a treasure.  Twenty one pristine acres with a charming log cabin, and an adorable caboose for guests.  Plus insulated and finished 7 car garages, and a basement workshop.  Oh, and the like new tractor, gator and Polaris, too!  All this in a heritage apple orchard, framed with meadows and a forest bordering the 2000 acre State Park!  Pretty special indeed.

Would an additional home with an underground guest apartment make a nice package?  Palomar Vista shares a property line.  That could be lovely, too!  Ah, endless possibilities!

When is a good time to bundle up and come up?  Glad to open those doors!

We are promised a bit of snow through the weekend!  I know there are many of you who dream of a White Christmas!  Would you like to celebrate in a cabin with a big stone fireplace?  That could be arranged!  How about another parcel of land next door with a gazebo looking out to the Observatory?  We can work that out too!

Beauty in the Woods is a cabin next door to Cedar Haven which is a half acre with a water share.  Both are reduced along with the Palomar Loft. 

Bundle up, and come on up!  Glad to show you ’round the Mountain!

  Coming down Crestline a few hours ago, I pulled over quick to take this for you.  I’ve seen a lot of rainbows, but never one this vivid.  And, it looks like the pot of Gold is right out there in Mendenhall Valley!   Very special!  Lots to be thankful for on this Mountain!

Driving along Crestline, I noticed quite a flock of wild turkeys having a wonderful time in the mist.  They know the perfect place to hide out this Thanksgiving.  I counted about a dozen or so.  Just one of the little delights that I’m thankful for on this beautiful Mountain.

BTW, this cabin is for sale!  Such a deal!  It comes with free pets!

May you all have a very wonderful Thanksgiving counting your blessings!  God bless you all!
