Second day in Lewiston, CA

Looking for rocks

Weaverville was not open so we headed for Trinity Lake....went to the west side of the lake.   Spent most of the day exploring the different campgrounds, marina's, etc. along the lake.   In Trinity Center, town of 200, we went to the local museum/library.   Very interesting....only saw the outside as it was closed.   The lake is getting ready to close next week so most stores, marina's, etc. have already closed for the season.   Lake is extremely low....learned it is dumped in anticipation of the winter snow run off. Here is a link to the Trinity Lake...you can rent houseboats, etc.    http://trinitylakeresort.com/.

During our exploration, we stumbled across this old barn "The Bowerman Barn".  It was built in 1878.   Very interesting

Once we finished exploring we returned to camp.   I decided I wanted one of the large pine cones we had around the area so I went exploring.   Found quite a few and realized they still have nuts....so, we (Kat & I) collected 6-8 and shook out the nuts....lots of work.   No wonder they charge $15 a pound.

Collecting Pine Nuts

Later in the evening we had the deer visit.  They are not used to human's so very difficult to get close to.   Kat cat Bundy however liked the deer and got nose to nose with a doe.   No, we did not have a camera to catch this Kodak moment.

 We will head for Woodland tomorrow....we have friends there we want to visit.
