Greetings From Highway 49

[MouseWife]

I wonder if a lot of places were closed because of it being a weekday? What is so sad to me is how the economy has hit everyone. A lot of stores closed down and others made to only be open a few days, mostly the weekends. We ran into that all over. As well as towns shutting down early.....

Oh, I forgot you guys have the mini!!! OOOOOO!!!! I so want to rent one for a road trip. But, with 3 kids, it ain't too practical, eh?

Sutter Creek~is this the place with the big gold mine? We also panned for gold there {if it is the place}.

Did you find {buy} any antiques? All I bought on our trip was a silver ring.....in a gold mining town. Oh well.

You {Lashbear and Alex} are too funny.

Not that the "historic" part is very good (when we're in the area we usually end up spending 30 minutes walking the strip and then move on).

We saw it as we sped by. We decided it didn't look interesting enough to stop.

You could get 3 very small kids in the back.

Yes, Sutter Creek has the gold mine you can visit, but it had already closed for the day.
