Santa Rosa has so many different parts to it that I am always finding something new. If you have a day to spare, here’s what I recommend. Walk the Trails One of my favorite activities is to go hiking. Right off Kawana Springs Road is a beautiful area that has multiple different trails called Taylor […]
K&L Bistro is French style dinning experience that serves amazing food – going there is a mouth watering experience. While the atmosphere is relaxed, the food is more 5 star casual. The happy hour / brunch is to die for with $5 cocktails and a $1.50 oyster bar. You have to try everything here – […]
