The Adventure Continues… Wild Horse Sanctuary

Huell’s visit to the Wild Horse Sanctuary in Shingletown was quite a long time ago — the episode originally aired October 2, 2005. But this amazing refuge, established back in 1978, is still going strong today; and it’s open to the public for trail rides and other special events. Of course, being a nonprofit organization, they welcome any donations or […]

The Adventure Continues… Nitt Witt Ridge

Arthur Harold Beal was a true California character, the creator of a one-of-a-kind house that in 1986 was designated California Historical Monument #939. Huell’s visit to the site originally aired on September 25, 2002. Unfortunately, the house was sold in 2022 and is currently listed as permanently closed. But because it was such a popular and quirky attraction, searching online […]

The Adventure Continues… Egyptian Museum

The Adventure Continues… Kelso Depot

After 2 weeks away from home (plus one week to recover!), I guess it’s time to jump back into my regularly scheduled blog posts. I’m starting out this Wednesday with an episode of California’s Golden Parks which originally aired May 10, 2006, featuring a place we passed by on our way home. The town of Kelso lies a bit north […]

Wild waters

At this fairly isolated spot just across the river from the fish hatchery, a small island blocks the view of the main stream of the American River. Still, I thought the current looked pretty boisterous when I visited Sailor Bar two weeks ago — but on today’s visit I found the rocky shore where I stood that day is now […]
