Palo Alto

We stayed in Palo Alto for our entire trip at my husband’s aunt’s house. She was gone on a trip herself out of the country so we had the whole place to ourselves! Sure beat living out of a hotel for a week! Wish we could have seen her though.

I took some pics of her beautiful backyard garden. She has chickens and a bee hive along with a full vegetable garden, fruit trees and bushes, various flowers, a waterfall feature, and many areas to sit and relax. We got to take care of the chickens and feed and collect eggs all week.

She also has a cottage in her backyard that is set up like a studio apartment. She has rented it out before but currently is not.

So funny how the chicken stuck it’s head in, watching us gather eggs 😂
My husband’s grandparents’ ashes are in this part of the garden 💖
