We bought property there and have spent the past three years planning and building a home and barn. It’s been a long, exciting process, and we encourage alumni to get in touch […]

The highlight of our summer was the wedding of our daughter, Claire (CdeP 2002), to Daniel Sternberg (by the way, he is a great guy). We had a wonderful weekend of events, culminating with the ceremony and celebration on our Sonoma Ranch. Many Thacher graduates, parents, faculty and former faculty joined in the celebration. Claire […]

One of the many problems with this drought is that locally sourced food supplies are becoming more expensive due to lack of water and forage. The good news is that you will likely see more quality beef hitting the stores as cattle producers are racing for better genetics and having to increase acreage per head. […]
