Shadelands synchronicity!
For the past few months, I've been trekking out to Pleasant Hill in the East Bay suburbs to get my ayurveda treatments. The Mt. Diablo Wellness Institute there is in the middle of an old suburban office park, and I didn't relly think twice about its location. But today Liz and I were driving out there and she said, "Hey, let's visit my family's museum!" It turns out that her great-great uncle, Hiram Penniman, used to own the Shadelands ranch and orchards around the turn of the last century. The house is all that remains and is now a local museum -- the rest of the land was sold to make way for the office park! So all this time, I've been getting my treatments on Penniman family land -- nice!
