Even after the result from last night and the predictions of the end of the world, the sun still came up and it was a great day for travelling and looking around. Lyn had the day off and Dave was retired so off we headed to the American River and into the Gold Country around Coloma where gold was first discovered in California. 

 

We spent the afternoon walking around the historic town of Coloma with afternoon tea at the local cafe before heading home stopping on the way at a local microbrewery at Cool (Cool Beerwerks) for some good beers. 

 

Tonight was our last night with Dave and Lyn so it was time for some grilling and the meat of choice was salmon. It was a great night with a good meal and good company and it was a shame we would have to head off in the morning.
