A very nicely composed photo.  How are things going in Sacramento?  We would love to send some rain your way!  We are turning into ducks in New Hampshire.

I like old buildings that speak of ordinary history.  This is beautiful.

Joan - We had 2 or 3 consecutive days of over 100 degree temps.  With Monday being at 108.  It will be a tad cooler today - Probably in the mid-90s.  We could use your rain.

Charlie - Kingsbury Grade is a road that leads from Lake Tahoe to the eastern slope of the Sierras, and into Carson Valley Nevada.  It's lovely all along its way.

Mike - I do too.  There is a lot of history in the area of this photo.  Folks moving between the California Mother Lode and Gold Rush to the Nevada Silver Mines.  When I drive along this road (Kingsbury Grade), it's almost 1849 once again.

Jarad and Amanda - Thanks for visiting!

Myrl, I love old buildings and imagine what times must have been like when they were built.  This is a great shot.

I love these reminders of days, and lives, gone by. I always wonder about the folks who lived in these places.... I used to live in the Sierra foothills, Placerville and Somerset areas. Like here, there is so much of the old mining history. Fascinates me....

Myrl, That is really a beautiful picture. But, 108 degree temperatures. That's too hot for anyone. We had that here last week - and it was miserable.
