Just got back from CA last night. I had a fantastic time. First week I was at my aunt & uncle's house, east of Sacramento, and my mom's parents were there as well. My aunt & uncle own a small farm. They have 6 cats, 2 dogs, goats, chickens, rabbits, sheep, a llama (a little out of place, I think, lol), and 3 children ages 5, 3, and 1.5 years old. There is, as I observed, never a dull moment. They also have a garden, make their own soaps (solid and liquid, including laundry detergent), and probably a bunch of other stuff I don't know about. For what I saw, they are managing it quite well. When I was with my grandparents, we stopped at Sutter's Mill, the famous prison in Folsom, The Sacramento Train Museum, and maybe one or two other spots.

After about a week, I went to my other grandparent's place in Alamo (just east of San Fransisco). While we were there, we stopped in San Fransisco every couple of days and saw the Golden Gate Bridge, a Japanese Tea Garden, a conservatory, the California Acadamy of Sciences (one of my favorite points in the entire trip), and maybe a few random other little places.

All in count, I have 555 pictures. I'm going to be busy picking my favorites and showing them, lol.

This is for all you Harry Potter fans. I took this one at the Sacramento Train Museum.

Kael, sounds like you had a great time. I can understand why there's never a dull moment. So much excitement.

Welcome back, Kael!!

Thanks for the welcome back.

It was chaos, but I had FUN.

Wow! Wish I could've gone too!
Glad you had fun, and glad you're back!
