The oats are key. I can taste them down the Valley and over the #TransverseRanges. The boule, well, you were a track and field guy, right? Weee you a runner?

I see it every Thursday upon visiting the San Joaquin. It is impressive. Especially upon entry into the #GreatValley out of the #TransverseRanges.

The northwest movement of the #PacificPlate creates significant compressional forces that has forced the #SanAndreas to jog westward. This has led to the formation of the #TransverseRanges & to a lesser but still significant extent, the #SantaCruz Mtns (in the background).
