Skywalker Ranch

Post by Landwaster »

Wife took me past Skywalker Ranch on Lucas Valley Road while we were up in Marin in California. Beautiful road, and definitely a sublime property, the fenceline becauses post and rail, and then there's just an entrance ... no bells and whistles.

There was some agreement about Lucas promising to keep it really low-key, and it seems he did that.

Nice touch to the namedropping element of being a tourist ... went past Skywalker Ranch.

Do you think I like being this dangerous?

I am envious, Land. It would be nice to at least say I've driven past the place. :-)

I came within 3000 miles of it once....

Blow away dandelion

I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
