Yosemite and More

 Last week I took a trip to the Angels Camp Museum. Angels Camp is known for the 'Jumping Frog Jubilee'. I avoided that and focused on the gold mining and pioneer days.   Even though I spent a lot of time there, need to go back again. There were lots of things with gears. A favorite of mine. Kinda looks like monster teeth but is actually a drill bit for hard rock mining. Who can resist a old set of boots. Photographically anyway. Well worn grinding stone. I took this photo in an area that is not generally open to the public, yet. It was slow so the docent let me in and gave a great presentation of the various articles. Yup, more gears One of many lamps. There were several spittoons. This one is actually from the San Andreas Courthouse Museum. I got there just before closing. Another place I'll have to revisit. Also one of my favorite images. Go, See, Enjoy, Stay Safe and Photograph Dave

Went to the Fresno Chaffee Zoo the other night with Friedhelm and Nancy to view the LUMINATURE exhibits. I was very pleasantly surprised. I didn't know what to expect but this was a really great outing. I won't comment on the individual images since I think they pretty much speak for themselves. And there's a lot of them!!   Go, See, Enjoy, Stay Safe and Photograph Dave
