What we did that week
We took the 126 west, about 45 minutes, to Prancer’s Farm in Santa Paula and caught their Wild West weekend: a hayride as the sun dropped over the hills, sweet ponies, live music, and more pumpkins than we could count. Coming up there: Fiesta at the Farm (Oct 17–18).
Then Saturday night we met friends at Tokai Sushi on Newhall Ranch Rd in Valencia. Order the salmon roll topped with crab, it’s the one everyone kept reaching for. Tell them Andy and Rebekah sent you.
