Last week at this time the temperatures were in the 110's down in the valley and not much cooler up here ! We sought refuge , along with Tess and Bryn, in the crystal blue, cool waters of the Yuba River North Fork . It was heavenly , I think Callie and I stayed in the water from about noon until 6:00 with only a couple of breaks to eat something :-) Bryn , I'm so proud to say, is a true river boy and stayed in almost the entire day also, only coming out because we forced him too, when he started turning blue ! The day will stay in my memory as one of the all time great days......hot sun, cool water, awesome water dog, people I adore......could anything be better ?
Well, coming close was a lovely get-away with my love. On Wednesday we got up early and loaded up the camper.......off we headed to Lassen National Park. It is absolutely beautiful and we practically had the place to ourselves. It's an underused gem in the National Park system......I highly recommend a trip into it, even if only for the day. After an awesome day of sight seeing we headed back to our little home -away-from-home, situated on beautiful Deer Creek. Dinner by the campfire, roasted marshmallows, a cozy bed at night with the roar of the creek as a backdrop. Pretty nice ! The next morning we did some more scouting around the area before packing up to head home. Always wonderful to be home.......can't deny it !
Quiet weekend ahead.......Bluegrass jam on Sunday !
