A Day at the Woods

Steve of Sandy Gulch said the fall foliage is in view in his neck of the woods. He'd coaxed me to visit his stumping ground at the western Sierra foothills. I've not been to Calaveras County for a long spell, certainly not at this time of the year.

Since this celebrated Mark Twin and Bret Harte country lies about 60 miles east on Highway 4, it was an inviting thought for a jaunt to Angels Camp area to take in some fall color.

The foliage up them 'dar hills just started to change color; it's not quite ready for prime time. Be that as it may, it was a pleasant excursion no less.
