Back in March Lori and I went up to Santa Rosa for Gary Vaynerchuk’s Wine Library TV Party and while in town we spent some time exploring Santa Rosa’s historic Railroad Square district. Here are a few photos I shot of the area.
Santa Rosa is the home of Peanuts comic creator Charles Schulz and all around Railroad Square there are statues of various Peanuts characters. In 2005 a total of 55 Peanuts sculptures installed in Santa Rosa as part of the “It’s Your Town, Charlie Brown” tribute. The Charles M. Schulz Museum is also located in Santa Rosa.
While in Railroad Square, we also discovered a wonderful cafe, Flying Goat Coffee.

Santa Rosa has done this every year since 2005. Last year was the woodstock sitting in a tree. It is a very fun event (going around town trying to find them) for both kids and adults.
This is rather awesome. I may have to stop making fun of Santa Rosa now =)
did you go to the Charles Schulz museum? if not, you missed out.
To the comment about making fun of Santa Rosa, ..you should check it out. There is actually a lot of cool stuff up there if your willing to look. Church of “One Tree” which used to house the Ripley’s Believe it Or not Museum (Ripley was raised in Santa Rosa and is buried at a cemetery up there.) The church he attended was built from one tree, hence it’s name.
Santa Rosa is also home to a pretty cool indoor roller rink. …there are some other cool things up there as well. Yet i’ll let you discover it for yourself.
Santa Rosa, looks very Cool.
May drop in and visit.
Great Santa Rosa shots. It’s good to see some talk about that town. I lived up there for a while and love Flying Goat. You should check out Russian River Brew Co. next time you’re up there.
