Re: Filoli picts

Didn't Mark Twain say - the coldest winter he ever experienced was a
summer in San Francisco?  I guess it must get cool up there at times,
even in the summer?   Not like here, as you know from your trips to
Austin.  And it doesn't get as warm there (borderline Hill
Country)usually as here.  Nice today - about 90-ish, bit of breeze. 
Perfect weather IMO.
