My California series is about the Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley area plus friendship and family.  Many afternoons I have sat under these umbrellas with my best friend and a glass of wine.  Every part of her garden if filled with some whimsical delight.  My daughter lives nearby now and can also enjoy this lovely setting.
