Downtown Placerville

Just a walk through Downtown Placerville. Placerville is a small town of about 11.000 that is about 45 minutes north of Sacramento. About 150 years ago it was a booning mining town and got a nickname called "Hangtown" because of the numerous hangings that went on there. It is a cute and nice Main Street to walk around with many of the original buildings from yesteryear still standing:

And there is the Cary House Hotel which was built in 1857 (below)

And the inside is cool:

Downtown Placerville is small but very cool to walk around:

Hiller Aviation Museum

I visited the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos, Ca and found it very interesting and cool. I didn't take notes, just enjoyed it:

The Hiller Aviation Museum is great way to learn about the history of aviation in this country.

Hayward Celebrates American Legion's Centennial

About six weeks, my city of Hayward had a Centinnial Celebration for the American Legion. The American Legion is an organzation of  U.S. war veterans for the benefit of veterans and service members. I am a member of the organzation. The American Legion was charted on September 16, 1919 by the U.S. Congress:

The American Legion has done a lot of good work and I hope that they are around for another 100 years at least. Thank you to all the Veterans that have served and please this weekend say a prayer in your busy time for all the servicemen and servicewomen who have served and are serving.

Rodin Sculpture Garden

The Rodin Sculpture Garden at Stanford University in Palo Alto is amazing. It features the work of Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) who was a French sculpturer who at the time of his death was one of the world's most renowned artists:

It was amazing to see all of these pieces and the Rodin Sculpture Garden at Stanford is amazing place and the price is great. It is free.
