Santa Ynez has so many different shades of green in the spring. I imagine a copywriter for a paint company coming up with catchy names to capture the essence of the colors: Sag Harbor Green, Arctic Green, Sprout Green, Slate Green, Marsh Green - well, maybe not Marsh Green. That could evoke an unpleasant image. I'm posting a photo of the panoramic view from Ridgeline Ranch. What monikers can you come up with?
I suppose some may have thought the title of this posting referred to golf greens. I'm not much of a golfer - I once won a prize once for high gross - but I do know there are several courses in the Valley. The River Course at Alisal Ranch is in Solvang. It's a gorgeous public course. The Alisal also has a private course. Continuing west toward the ocean, Buellton has the Zaca Creek Course and Lompoc has La Purisima. Traveling east, we're about fifteen minutes from Rancho San Marcos which is situated off Highway 154, the route over a mountain pass between Santa Ynez and Santa Barbara. And, of course, Santa Barbara has golf courses, too.
Part of what makes Ridgeline Ranch such a rare property is its proximity to both wilderness and civilization.
