What do you do when you’re newly scuba certified? 🤿🦞

You dive right into lobster season, of course! 😂

What started as a lobster-hunting adventure turned into an underwater seafood treasure hunt! 🦞🐙🌊

Not only did we catch fresh lobster, but we also came home with sea urchins, sea snails, and even octopus!

I’ve never eaten so much seafood that we caught with our own hands! Talk about ocean-to-table dining at its finest! 😋🦞

Who needs a seafood restaurant when you can dive for your own dinner? 😂

San Jose was California's first civilian settlement, founded on November 29, 1777 as El Pueblo de San José de Guadalupe! That means the city has been planning where to put new homes for 249 years 😅

Bonus fact: San Jose was also California's first state capital, from 1849 to 1851.

Fun Fact Friday! 🎉

Did you know the name "Silicon Valley" only dates back to 1971? Journalist Don Hoefler coined it in Electronic News while covering the area's growing semiconductor industry. Before that, it was just a beautiful valley with great weather… and, apparently, even worse parking. 🚗

Fifty-plus years later, Santa Clara and San Mateo County remain some of the most desirable places to live in the country. If you're curious what your home is worth or thinking about making a move in Silicon Valley, I'd love to help!
