RECENT FIRE IN NOGAL:
Our property was not affected by the recent fire. To access our property you will need to travel through a portion of Nogal Canyon that was affected by the fire.

It is still beautiful here and while we are deeply sorry for our neighbors, we feel great gratitude for being spared from the fire.
