Mother's Day Breakfast May 8, 2011

Mother's Day Breakfast Tickets now on sale! Tickets for the breakfast are now on sale at our EventBrite page. Once again, we're holding the event at the Ridgeview camp site, which is about a mile and a quarter walk from the parking area. When you get there, you can sit down to a delicious western-style breakfast of scrambled eggs, pork link sausage or vegetarian patty sausage, hot-off-the-grill homemade drop biscuits, country fried potatoes, orange juice, coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and incredibly yummy fresh local strawberries dusted with powdered sugar. During breakfast, which is served from 8:30 to 11:00 a.m., you'll be entertained with live old-time fiddle and banjo music by Prairie Flower and Cactus Bob. Afterwards, you can relax and bask in the soothing beauty of a sunny spring morning on Pine Ridge.  If you're so inclined, you can even roll up your sleeves and help us wash dishes.  If you've got kids, you can join them at the children's nature activity table, which will be loaded with animal furs and bones and all sorts of other things to feel and talk about. Breakfast Logistics The walk to the Ridgeview camping area will take you about 45 minutes, maybe a little longer if you take time to admire the wildflowers.  Transportation to the breakfast will be provided for older folks, people with small children, and any other people who might find it difficult to get there on foot.  Special transportation arrangements will be available for physically handicapped people (call the park for information at 408-779-2728). The state charges a day-use fee of $8 per car ($7 senior rate if someone in your vehicle is at least 62 years old).  If you're part of a large group of people, please carpool to save yourselves some money and help us conserve parking space. Things that aren't allowed at the breakfast:  flower-picking, pets (other than the human kind), mother-in-law jokes (unless they're really funny). Things that are encouraged at the breakfast:  lollygagging, wool-gathering, cloud-watching, kid tickling. Getting Tickets to the Breakfast Tickets for the breakfast are now on sale at our EventBrite page http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1494888251. Ticket sales will continue until we sell out.
