Mike found a quiet place to read a book at 'The Hawk's Nest and Little Library'!

The lawn is being redone at the Pritzlaff Conservation Center

You can see the Santa Barbara Channel, Santa Cruz Island and the tower of the old Saint Anthony's Seminary.

We live less than a mile southwest of the garden and this is our view of the tower of the old Saint Anthony's Seminary.
