Alright - at this point I think you're all familiar with the "Location, Location, Etc." mantra in real estate. I thought I'd pay a little homage to the macro location of Coto de Caza as Spring sweeps across the hills. Here are a few photos from the last couple of my hikes into the hills over the past few weeks:
