This past Sunday, this little family went to Davenport for a jam tasting at Swanton Berry Farm. The weather was perfect, a little windy but sunny! I’d heard about Swanton Berry Farm from some friends at church, and have had it on our to-do list for quite some time now. We’re HUGE fans of jam, and I solely blame Rob’s Grandma Margie for that. She makes a killer raspberry jam. My sister literally eats it out of the jar with her fingers {OK, so do I}. Well, anyway, we love jam so we were excited to get our taste on. To our surprise, there was more than just jam to splendor our taste buds on.
Davenport
The day after our Big Sur adventure, Heather invited us to Davenport for the day with her – a secluded cliff beach just north of Santa Cruz by 15 minutes. The beach is famous for its sea-glass – scraps of colored glass tunneled by a natural river from famous glass artists up the hill. Sunday is beach day, as you know, so we of course went!
Heather and I showed up in the same pants and same nail polish {typical}:
Once we parked off the 1, we took a small trail to the beach.
Heather brought her ukulele and Rob quickly stole it from her to make up his own tunes {sorry about the sun spot!}. It is the coolest instrument and I’m so excited to have a friend who’s learning to play it!
After some hours in the sun and sea breeze, we went to the Roadhouse for clam chowder, endless bread and a half glass of tempranillo.
