Vallejo's Secret Coffee Spot

Moschetti's  Artisan Coffee

During the regular work week, no one would notice the little blue building on the way to the Vallejo Ferry. It just happened one day, as I looking for a cute little coffee shop to meet a business owner that I was searching through Yelp and read it's reviews.  I picked up my son from school that day, and told him I wanted to check out a coffee shop.
The first time around, it is easy to miss.   The signs don't grab a person's attention.  The building sits next to a railroad track.  If I had not driven around a couple of times, I would have assumed that I got the wrong address, it looks like an apartment.
Upon entering the building however, it is easy to distinguish that this were an artisan roaster dwells.  Like many artists, it's all about the outcome. Who really cares the driveway is not paved, on a weekday pretty much no one is there.  Except for a small kitchen with pot of coffee tasting,  the deception is that the guys making the coffee are also the ones who will sell you the coffee. It's not a coffee shop.   There is a pitcher for tasting their coffee in a small kitchen like room.  It's not the place to meet a business owner.

There is free coffee tasting on Saturdays.  Unlike the weekdays, there is an entirely different scene.  Vendors line the entrance, free coffee tasting is in the back room.  What's unique about this place?  The coffee is made in "Vallejo".

Cull Canyon Trail Challenge 2018 -the dog's blog

This my husband and my second day trying the  East Bay Regional Park District Trails Challenge.   Today we tried the Cull Canyon Trail: Cull Canyon Regional Recreation Area Chabot to Garin Regional Trail/Cull Canyon Road/Heyer Road/Service Road/ Lake View Trail/Columbia Drive Length: 2.25-mile loop Elevation: 350 feet Location: Castro Valley GPS: 37.710479, -122.055430  We picked this trail because we could bring the dog with us, and it is described as shaded trails, shallow creek crossings, ridge-top breezes.  Sounds good.  We have a family Welsh Corgi who does not like the heat.  He is always enthusiastic about a walk, but if the weather is too hot, he stops at every piece of shade possible.   In addition to the trail, the park has a beautiful swimming spot and tables for picnickers.  Today was Memorial Day, it was filled with visitors.  This is the beginning of the trail.  So far so good....
