Placerville is the county seat of El Dorado County, California. The population was 9,610 at the 2000 census. Prior to the discovery of gold in nearby Coloma, California by James W. Marshall in 1849 sparking the California Gold Rush, the small town now known as Placerville was known as Dry Diggins after the manner in which the miners moved cartloads of dry soil to running water to separate the gold from the soil. Later in 1849, the town earned its most common historical name, Hangtown, due to the numerous hangings that had taken place there. By 1850, the temperance league and a few local churches had begun to request that a more friendly name be bestowed upon the town. The name was not changed until 1854 when the City of Placerville was incorporated. At its incorporation Placerville was the third largest town in California. In 1857 the county seat was then moved from Coloma to Placerville, where it remains today. -- Source: Wikipedia.com

Peace-by-Piece?

Counter-Point: Proposition 19 Does More Harm Than Good

Cal Rendition of the National Anthem Inappropriate

It’s a Cal football tradition. After the band concludes playing its traditional pump up pregame show, it leads the stadium, Cal and visiting fans alike, in a rendition of the national anthem: “And the rockets’ ...


Angel Island Immigration Station
01/12/2012

A few weeks ago Margaret attended a voice over class in Sausalito so I had the day to head over to Angel Island. The Angel Island Immigration Station was recently restored. It’s very well done and quite moving to see how people were treated while trying to immigrate. Not a real proud moment in our history but [...]


Fleet Week, San Francisco
01/12/2012

Every year the US Navy comes into San Francisco and the event is called Fleet Week. This year 13 ships came into the bay and twelve were open for public visits.

Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
01/12/2012

Our destination was Point Lobos State Natural Reserve  to the south of Carmel just off Highway 1. On our last visit to Big Sur, we had planned to stop off at the park but, being tight with our cash, we wanted to park outside and walk in. There were no safe spots outside the park [...]


From Scratch Restaurant, Carmel
01/12/2012

From Scratch Restaurant is located in the Barnyard just off Highway 1. Many times we have driven this way and neither of us realized what a gem there was so close to Highway 1. I had found the restaurant online the day before and thought it would be worth trying out but we were not [...]

This is our last day in Fort Bragg.  Several family members were driving home today and left early in the morning so we bid them farewell.

Wedding in Fort Bragg
01/12/2012

We had arrived at Shoreline Cottages  on Highway 1 before our room was ready. Shoreline Cottages is a small complex of eleven cabins, each decorated with a different theme.

Bean Hollow State Beach
01/12/2012

It was a foggy morning when we set off from home for Bean Hollow Beach but the forecast said the sun would burn off the fog. We were slightly concerned that the Santa Cruz mountain range would be fog bound, which would have made the drive a little scary, but miraculously the fog disappeared as [...]


Zachary’s, Santa Cruz
01/12/2012

Our visit to Zachary’s didn’t start too well due to GPS problems but all of that was soon forgotten when we eventually reached our destination. Zachary’s is on Pacific Avenue in the downtown area of Santa Cruz. From the outside it doesn’t look all that imposing but don’t be fooled by that. Inside it is [...]
