BAY AREA BYWAYS  

Where the Earth Meets the Sky
A Visual Tour
​by  Elsa Fernandez

​In the farmlands outside Petaluma, just an hour’s drive from San Francisco – an unusual gem awaits.  In a giant eucalyptus tree in the middle of a field, rustic and roughly hewn, this romantic treehouse stirs the imagination – smell the wild grasses and sip your favorite wine – spend a night at this extraordinary place - where the Earth meets the Sky and you can commune with the stars.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Elsa Fernandez grew up in Asia. She has lived in San Francisco since 1970 and never gets tired of this lovely city. She has travelled the world and still gets excited flying back home and to finally land at SFO. Her family is scattered around the world—India, Australia, Dubai, England, Ireland and Argentina. She is a political junkie and majored in Journalism and Political Science. She loves music and plays the piano quite well (one of her dreams was to own a piano bar in upcountry Maui . . .  she would probably call it the Maui Moon!). Writing poetry is an emotional outlet for her.
