A Guide to : Montana de Oro State Park
My mama celebrated her birthday last week + wanted to go to Montaña de Oro State Park. So of course, I couldn't say no to this little adventure.
We made a day trip to the state park -- which was more like a 1/2 day by the time we arrived. It still gave us enough time to explore the Spooner house + hike their smaller trail.
Here's a breakdown of our day:
🥾 Since we arrived later in the day, we decided to hike the bluff trail - which is the smallest trail. It's 3.4 miles long + has the most gorgeous views. The trail is alongside the cliffs, so it's hard to not stop + take pictures at every viewpoint.. especially if this is your first time there
🐚 On this trail, there is a stairway that leads to the beach + tide pools. I recommend taking a break on the beach + check out the tide pools
🏠 The Spooner house is the original ranch house of the Spooner family. It is now a free museum + pretty cool to check out
🐍 Be aware of the wildlife! If you start at the spooner house, there is a running list of when someone has seen wildlife, the date they saw it + which trail it was. Regardless - be aware, stay on the paths + leave the wildlife alone
I definitely want to go back to this state park. There is beach access if you don't want to hike, + campsites for those who like to camp.
DETAILS:
Location: Los Osos, California
Cost: Free; campsites require reservations
Hours: Daylight to dusk
Things to do:
Hikes
Tide pools
Spooner house
Enjoy the beach
Camp
Be Mindful:
Stay on the designated trail paths
Be aware of wildlife
Be careful of cliff dropoffs

A review of the “Far Cry Timeline”
I realized that there was a page dedicated to the series’ timeline on the Far Cry Wiki, so I decided to review it because… I just couldn’t help myself.
GREEN: Correct information and date.
BLUE: Probably correct but needs to be confirmed.
PINK: Correct information but wrong date (see this post).
ORANGE: Pure fan speculation (date and/or information).
RED: Incorrect information and/or date.

After Zheng He left the isles, Lin Cong stole one of Zheng He's colossal treasure ships named "the Chaoyang" (containing massive amounts of gold and treasure that were collected during Zheng He's many ocean voyages).
Lin Cong and his Chinese invaders ruled over Rook Islands where the natives suffered under their tyrannical reign.

He escrito mis versos a mano como quien echa las peladuras de patata al fregadero o el que quita la capa marron de la cebolla antes de pelarla estas palabras en un documento de Drive parecen las primeras luces de navidad en Peachtree City parecen las particulas que uno se deja cuando va a Espana a merendar con su madre el sueno de los faros mucho tiene que ver con el arce rojo que crece en mi nuevo hogar sus hojas relucientes de lluvia las ramas vestidas de liquen y geometrias ignotas hablan de la receta del pan de Marco Porcio Caton del porcentaje de realidad en la poesia actual o del lenguaje secreto de las flores del Louvre
hablo del rayo de luna que cae al pecho encendido de las ardillas lleno mi cabeza de tierra y de cielos sepia la noche me muestra en frances los tuneles secretos que conectan las dos orillas vienen los poetas y los filosofos con camisas rojas y un jurel en su cintura vienen y bailan claque como caballos cruzando Atlanta y las flores muertas y el olor de mi abuela en una cartera marron las cartas que vuelven para contarte como es tu otono y los caminos embarrados entre grava y espigas inmoviles
me siento como los que por su luna de miel visitan la casa de Dolly Parton en las montanas de Tennessee como los $0.14 que costaron las visagras y los tornillos de la cabana de Thoreau como el que habla con fluidez sobre la ortotipografia y los calendarios de adviento para mascotas como el extranjero que escribe un poema frente a la ventana el primer Dia de Accion de Gracias como las tildes y las enies que mi ordenador no me permite poner y las esculturas de gallos en la repisa de la cocina me dijo un arbol que crecer es incubar los huevos de pajaros medievales en las sabanas de tu cama es embadurnar los dulcimeres con aceite de coco y comprar postales de agradecimiento a la mar el aceite de oliva en un tupper descansa como los titanes cada primer martes de mes en esa laguna de oro con un jersey de ochos morado tengo un reloj y una nieve lenta
estos versos en Arial 11 y a doble espacio son verdad mentira y sueno son sonido y silencio colgando de una estrella muerta son el perro recien banado que llora frente a la chimenea un dia de noviembre
Mario Obrero, Peachtree City

Visiting the Spooner Ranch House
The Spooner Ranch House gets its own appreciation post because I thought it was a pretty cool place to check out before going on our hike in Montaña de Oro State Park.
What was once the main Spooner household is now a museum, gift shop, + tourist information center. There is limited parking in front of the house. We were lucky to get the last spot in front of the house.
When we visited, the house was also hosting an exhibit dedicated to Pioneer Women* in one of the wings of the house. It was an interesting exhibit to look at and read the stories of the women who made the trek to California from various parts of the world. The other half of the house is open to explore. You can walk in and out of rooms, learn more about the Spooner family and other little facts about the ranch.
It's fun to explore the house + admire the views they had. Could you imagine in 1892, when the house was built, how the views were back then!? Probably even more incredible!
I did learn something new about houses while I was walking around -- the California cooler. I have never heard of this, but thought that it was the coolest thing. How did they discover that the cool coastal air would keep their perishables cool + last longer with a cabinet.. in the wall..?? Basically - the California cooler was the answer to a root cellar. It was built on an exterior wall of the kitchen with two vents that opened directly to the outside - one up and one down. The idea was the cool coastal air would flow through the vents and circulate around the shelves keeping perishable items cool.
I recommend checking the ranch house out if it is open when you're at Montaña de Oro State Park!
