Enjoying our stay

We are having a nice time here. The Weather has been ok with some day a bit cool and others are warm with no rain. Have not done much running around but I have walked most of the park. We did the Candy Bar Bingo again and came away with 7 nice candy bars. Went to Orville again an did the casino thing. Didn't win any money but didn't loose any either. So that was a good day. I took the kayak out on the lake and that was fun but a bit windy.

Yesterday we drove to the Empire Mine State Park to tour the mine. It was the largest Gold Mine in Calif. It produced over 8 Billion dollars in gold in todays standards. It was a great tour and as we did it on a weekend we got to tour the Bourn's Cottage. Wow that was my kind of cottage. The outside was all rock and brick and the inside was all done in Redwood. Then we toured the rest of the property. It sure was a nice place and the mine was great too. It must have been as we were there over 4 hours.                          CLICK HERE TO SEE ALL ABOUT THE MINE

We also went to the Yuba River State Park to see the longest single span covered bridge in the US. It was a nice park but could not see much of the bridge as it is under repair.

We then stopped at the town of Rough and Ready. The town was started in 1849 and in 1850 became the only town to Succeed from the US. But come back in 3 months.
