We decided to explore some of the local, smaller towns. We've been to them all before, but each have delighted and demanded a repeat visit.

Harmon Heald founded this town in 1857. We loved all the cute it has going on 161 years later.






The biggest "wow" came from this $75 per 1/2 pound ham. Cinco Jotas acorn-fed ibérico ham is Spain's national treasure. It's an unrivalled product obtained from the rear legs of ibérico pigs raised free range in the meadows of south-west Spain.
A favorite meandering spot is Modern Antiquarium. This vintage, and antique, collective is comprised of 35 vendors offering a changing array of incredible and often one-of-a-kind items. It truly is like a museum and we find such cool stuff everytime we come.
Love this mail scale and stamp dispenser.
How about this hot dog bun baking sheet?


Being a Disneyland fan, I was excited by this postcard, published by Upjohn Pharmacy. What an interesting history, and worth the read. Many real businesses were part of the Park when it opened in 1955. Wow.
Leaving Healdsburg, the countryside was painted in yellow. It's hard to believe it's the end of December.
