Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge San Jose, CA
It is here in Steve Jobs' ranch house of his teenage years that he and Steve Wozniak produced their first computer prototype and eventually formed Apple Computer Company in 1976. This same garage is the keeper of conversations between a father and son, tinkering on the weekends with electronics, taking apart and rebuilding radios and televisions. Steve’s father, Paul Jobs, was a machinist and taught his son rudimentary electronics, laying the groundwork for Steve’s passion with technology. Look again at that garage door—envision a father and teenage son behind those doors reconstructing electronics, and soon afterwards, that same young man and his geek friend fine-tuned the tinkering into a futuristic vision of how technology can touch people's lives, creating an entire generation of Apple aficionados. Just a suburban ranch house garage? Think again. Think Different.

Chestnut pod popping

The season to forage for chestnuts is late October through November at Skyline Chestnuts, a gather-your-own orchard in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This 20-acre orchard is blanketed in the morning fog at around 2,500 feet off Skyline Boulevard, above Palo Alto and maintained by the Johsens family on Midpeninsula Open Space District lands. They provide the gloves and buckets, and you bring your team of gathering kinfolk. Collect all you desire in a big white plastic bucket, and then weigh in to pay by the pound. Be careful—the spiny protective pods can catch tender fingers by surprise! Roasting pans are sold on site to complete your Currier and Ives painting of roasting delicacies over an open fire. The season is short, so plan ahead so you don’t miss this unique opportunity to gather up autumn's brown nuggets from century-old trees.
