Great post! Thanks for sharing. Would love to have you visit again (and see the inside) if you have not yet already. We’re open again, every Monday from 11 am until 4pm.
Oh cool! You work at the Pico Adobe? Yes! I would love to stop by again. Would you or any of the other folks there like to be interviewed as part of my new “Who Are the Helpers” series?
Hi Bill. Just wanted to make a quick correction. I made a big typo. We are open on Mondays from 10 am – 4 pm. I will send you an email regarding the interview shortly. Thanks for your reply! – Jason
