Movie Reviews!

I decided to go with an "unexpected farm stories" theme for movie reviews in the May issue of CoastViews. David Lynch's The Straight Story is a strange partnership between Lynch and Disney Studios. How did that even happen? Babe: Pig in the City is a surreal sequel to 1995's Babe. To read the reviews, click here.

Woodside's Filoli is known for its beautiful gardens and historic mansion, but less well-known for the army of volunteers (over 1,200 people) who keep the National Trust for Historic Preservation site going. I was lucky enough to meet many of these enthusiastic and friendly folks at their last volunteer day back in February for an article that appeared in the April issue of Coast Views Magazine. The next volunteer recruitment day is coming up on May 19th. Read my article to learn more about it! While you're there, why not read my movie reviews of Hugo and The Illusionist?
