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
