Hot, Hot day here in Nevada City. Carl and Shan have a pass to go to Scot’s Flat Lake, so away we went. Trevor and Otis, friends and neighbors of theirs joined us. Fun time kayaking. Arlo and Otis were in the water most of 4 hours, squirting Pappy Shuff and Carl
Dinner was at the Owl Restaurant in Grass Valley. Good BBQ.
Tomorrow we’ll be in Sacramento for a week.
Since Shan worked today and Carl wanted to go on a run, we took Arlo to Gigi’s and picked him up.
I had my Aquasize class at Pioneer Pool because Memorial Pool had a “Code Brown” issue. Enjoyed the class and was a good day to be in the water.
Then Arlo had swim class so I got to take him there. It was a hot day so great to be in the water again.
Shan and Arlo took us on a hike on the Deer Creek Trail. It’s in the middle of downtown Nevada City but it’s through the woods along Deer Creek.
… And a swinging bridge to cross.
Wednesday night, Shannon, Donna and I drove to Sacramento for dinner and Hell’s Kitchen Broadway show. Great music score, voices were so clear and sounded beautiful. Loved every minute of it.
Drew is there but since he gave his ticket to me, he’s down the row a few seats.
One last bike ride before leaving the Campground. This ride we decided to go to the DOCO, downtown Sacramento, for a pastry at Estelle’s.
Lenny doesn’t go on bike rides much any more. When we got back, we found him in the bed Erin Loaned us.
Left the campground around 11. When we tried to reach our campground, we realized we couldn’t turn right on McCourtney road because of construction. Since we aren’t locals, we didn’t know any other way to go. GPS didn’t offer us any help. Asked one of the construction crew. Her directions took us on a backroad halfway back to Auburn so that we could come into the campground the “back way”. LONG way around. Didn’t arrive to the campground until 2 pm. Only supposed to take a little over 1 hour from Sac!
The Fairgrounds staff are beginning to prep for their Fair. They told us it’s been a mad house because of the construction. Hope they finish soon.
Then Kya called to tell us our garage had been trashed. Not sure who or what did the damage, or how they got in though.
Will we ever find out who or what did this?
Since I had a haircut at 10 am with Kevin and we wanted to ride bikes, we started at 7:30. Cool ride but enjoyable along the American River.
Saw turkeys who are not afraid of us.
My haircut was right next to Trader Joe’s, so stopped there for a few groceries.
REI is close to our campground so we shopped there for a while but ended up not buying anything. On to Target where I saw several crocheted dresses.
Then it was time for the baseball game between Oakland As and Boston Red Sox. Shan, Drew and Carl are Red Sox fans. Fun time cheering for them. They won with a grand slam - 4-1. Oakland will be moving to their new location in Vegas soon.
Drove twisty-windy Route 50 from South Lane Tahoe to Sacramento.
I crocheted and Lenny slept while Bill drove.
Visited with Drew and Erin til they went to dinner and we went to journey to the Dumpling again. So good.
We’ve stayed at this dispersed campground twice before. It’s in Hope Valley, at the intersection of Route 88 and 89. Great place to stay when you want to go to South Lake Tahoe.
Sat around read and crocheted. Good rest day.
Sunset gave us a pretty display.
