And more local pictures

The Evergreen Cemetary operated by the Grange.  We plan a Spring workday and clean-up
Cypress tress on Highway 1 approaching Manchester from the South
Manchester - had a big store and a post office.  Population just over 400 - its own town.  We've always wondered if the Irish Beach residents are included in this population figure as its where our mail goes. 
Lots of people take pictures of these uniquely cut trees - guess if you could point to a single landmark in Manchester - the trees is what people would remember
More pictures of the trees
Our fire department.  Gary is a volunteer fire fighter (or still in training).
The Manchester school.  Susan is a school board member
Our market/handware store.  Its full size in a town with only 400 - go figure
Our post office.  We're box 22
The road north out of Manchester
Sign for our Sunday breakfast at the Grange.
View to the east from Highway 1
Sign to the Manchester State Park.  Its one of the parks to close due to the budget crisis in California

Alder Creek - where the San Andreas fault goes into the Pacific Ocean for the last time.  We live on the North American plate side.
View of Alder Creek as it flows towards ocean.  Nice valley and grazing land.  Last thing you see before our development in Irish Beach
