*Do you have that place from your childhood where you keep happy memories? For me, one of those rare special places is The Nut Tree. I had birthday parties there, and so did my kids. It is set to re-open in late September.
Oh the Memories!

Yes, even wikipedia!
Mooney Mites at the Nut Tree Airport. (never heard of them before)
I am a NUT for the Nut Tree
LOLOL I never met Edith, not even in 1962!
Got PDF?
Ah Childhood. I've been to many of these....
At the Nut Tree Airport...braver than I am...
Someone stop me.. I am Nut Tree Obsessed!
The great majority of the model aircraft Eddie created for the Nut Tree Restaurant and Airfield in Vacaville, California were acquired by the San Francisco Airport Museums in 1997. Mr. Chavez's relationship with the Nut Tree began in 1961 when Edwin I. Power, Jr., an owner of the Nut Tree, had his art director, Don Birrell, contact Mr. Chavez after seeing his model work at the Smithsonian. From 1961 to 1988, some twenty-seven Chavez models were commissioned by the Nut Tree, and for much of that period he modeled exclusively for Mr. Power. A few of the models were made with the assistance of Mr. Chavez's friend, Robert Fogg.
lots of special childhood memories, but nothing even remotely close to NUT TREE.What an outstanding place to be.Wish I COULD b there, but alas, only in spirit!
Hi Sally or Shirley!
So...when and where is this Chat and Chomp taking place? Thank you...
Sarah
Oops!
I'm sorry ladies. I just now read about the date and time of the Chat and Chomp. Well, I don't live too far from Vacaville, but I don't know if my mom will agree. You know why? Just because my grandma is coming from Germany next week! Oh well. Besides, what would I do there? I mean I'm going to be the only teenager there! And guess what?! I made my first cookies out of scratch today! I mean, I made them up all by myself. I just put a whole bunch of ingrediants, and mixed 'em up! Oh yeah! I'm so happy!!!
sorry for taking your time!
love,
Sarah
hi Shirley!
What color is Suzan's hair? Is it brown or blonde? Because in that "Tuscany" dvd it's blonde. Any clues?
thanks,
Sarah
Looks as Her hair is darker, I think it is made blonde. Suit Her really well! Sorry Sally, You have to party without me once more. I would love to be at the tree, but it i s just not working out, not this time, some other time. Thanks anyway, I will think of You all! Kati
Hi Sally!
I think I'll ask my mom about going to the "Chat and Chomp." You never know, maybe she'll let! Oh, by the way, when does it end?
thanks,
Sarah

Reliving our fond memories of the Nut Tree will take a while longer as they work through a few construction delays. We will have a Chat n Chomp at the Nut Tree, but need to wait a while longer.
hi Sally!
Um, is there any way I could get directions? I'll ask my mom about going. Oh, and one more question: Are there going to be adults only?
thank you
Sarah
Hello Dear Sally...
I say this with sadness. I'm afraid I won't make it to the Chat and Chomp this Saturday. 99% that I'm not going, and 1% that I might go. I'll try. I really want to go, because I want to see you, Sally!
hope, hope, hope,
Sarah
P.S. Cross your fingers!
There will always be a nex time. Once that new Nut Tree Opens I want to go there, and I think most others want to see it again too.
Hi Sally!
Nope, can't go. (tear, tear.) Yes, you're right...there is always a next time. But...I'll be at there in spirit!
Have fun!!!!
Sarah
Here we are! John deJong was kind enough to send us these photos.
Here I am showing off a gift from a Wonderful Lady and Good Friend, I have yet to meet. (we will correct that!) Now that the kids are grown, I can update my living room. I am currently looking for a frame for this Vermeer. Thanks to Lorraine!
More of our Good Time ....
