Book Description
Brent is often asked by his KZST listeners where to find the best restaurant, or about a special place to take out-of-town guests. The guide books he has seen are business motivated or ego motivated. Brent decided that what was needed was a pamphlet that listed the best things about Sonoma County. He wanted to know what the local people did and where it would be more interesting to go. So he asked his listeners to call into the studio at KZST and (on the air) tell Brent about their favorite Sonoma County experiences. The ideas for a small pamphlet grew into enough things to fill a big pamplet and still more ideas came pouring in. Brent knew that he was going to have to put everything together in a book, and so the work began.

Intermixed the tips are little asides labeled “Fun Fact” or “Did You Know.” They mostly serve as trivia to use for showing off. Read from start to finish or by relevant chapter.
