earliest residents in the two-story adobe structure that remains. The museum
features collections of artifacts directly related to the residents of the
house and the tools they used in their daily lives. The furnishings help
recreate the scene of a 19th century dwelling. The 4.7 acres of formal
gardens provide a tranquil setting for you enjoy the beautiful scenery. Stop in
at the gift shop to pick up a souvenir or two to take back home with you.

instruction for beginners, but there also lessons for various levels so that
you can learn to perfect your technique. The rates are quite reasonable, with mid-week specials.
