Air District secures decisive victory: Chevron & MRC refineries drop lawsuits: Chevron to pay highest violation penalties in agency history

Went to the #johnmuirhistoricsite, national park service as part of the #bringingbackthenatives garden tour.

It's in #martinezca and consists of the lovely house surrounded by small orchard and vineyard. There's also an Adobe in the back, but it is not open due to damage.
