And each day of the week a different drive and new delights.
There is the valley of El Cajon ("the box"), which should be visited in grape-picking time.

The great Boston ranch alone employs three hundred and twenty-five pickers.

Men, women, children, all busy, and the grapes when just turned are sweet, spicy, and delicious, making the air fragrant.

This valley is dotted with handsome villas and prosperous ranches.

The range of mountains which looms up before us from the veranda of the hotel is not yet dignified by a name, yet it is more imposing than the White Mountains, and in the distance we see old Cuyamaca, nearly seven thousand feet high.
