A return visit to Filoli…

Posted:  April 6, 2008 at 11:55 am by

Yesterday, Jeff and I took a short drive south to the Filoli Center…a Historic Trust home and 16-acre formal gardens…near Woodside, CA. We visited in the fall a few years ago, but never in the spring, when the bright flowers are at their peak.

FYI, those of you who watched Dynasty in the 1980s will recognize this home as the Carrington mansion. For our part, we experienced no melodrama on our visit…just throngs of Asian tourists.
