In the 1960s, Harry Clark sold his restaurant "La Bodega" in San Francisco and built this house in a Redwood forest somewhere above Calistoga, California. He cut in the road, logged a patch higher up the mountain for cash, and used solar panels to charge a bank of batteries that powered the house. A big wire ran down to the house from there. Harry was off the grid, physically and mentally. We visited this house many times to talk flamenco and drink Harry's wine. Harry and Lynn made their own wine from grapes their friends in the Napa valley grew.
