The Smell of Cider Brewing and a Christmas Village Display Around the Corner

Riley's at Los Rios Ranchos

Locally here in Southern California, many of us have a fall season destination where we can get away from the common everyday congestion and angry tirades that are encountered throughout an everyday clock cycle.  One of our family's favorites is the small mountain foothill town of Oak Glen just at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains above Yucaipa.  My own family has been visiting the town known for its apple orchards and village lifestyle for over 50 years now. The fall season brings the harvesting of numerous varieties of apples, amazing apple pie, and cleaner air to breathe than what we're used to on the lower flatlands.

One thing is missing though. A town Harvest Village Display, and when Christmas arrives, a Christmas Village display. Oak Glen would benefit tremendously from a grand display set up at a central point for visitors to linger around and enjoy as part of the yearly festivities.
