Food Scene
A very popular place to have breakfast and lunch because they have consistently good food. We love to eat omelets there. Be prepared to wait for a table, especially on the weekends.

Parks & Nature
Double Peak Park
900 Double Peak DrGreat hiking or you can drive to the top.
Better on weekdays. Can get busy with hikers, mountain bikers and some horses on the weekends. The kids enjoy the shorter, less challenging hikes and exploring nature.

Drinks & Nightlife
My favorite brewery. The owners of this place create a great environment and even better brews. My "wine only" friends love a few of their brews as well.
