August 14th...we headed up north towards Jackson, CA. First stop was unexpected....a small schoolhouse in Angel's Camp. Perfect first picture spot!!!!
Every trip...after about the first hour in the car we are all itching to get out and take a picture of something....ANYTHING....so this was a nice break!
Jess....getting some awesome shots!!!
and sometimes you have to get in some weird positions to get the great shot!!!
Next stop...Jackson...we found a cool church to photograph...we were actually looking for something else and here it was....
We could not stay long...as we were taking pictures..people from church started arriving and a couple of the people yelled at us to move our car....so we left!
Our true destination was Indian Grinding Rock and a town called Volcano. When we arrived at Indian Grinding Rock...I was disappointed...I guess I was expecting more...But we made the best of it by taking some fun picture!!!!
They did have some tee pee's that we played in....
and played a little more.....
Next stop...sleepy NO stoplight town of Volcano....
We were hungry...and thirsty...so of course we went to the local bar...
We had a great time people watching in there and chit chatting with the locals....The bartender Bob was a bit of a perv....but funny!
They let you sign dollar bills there and pin them on the wall...so we did...and check out where we decided to place our bill!!!
This place had the BEST food EVER!!! We all ordered something different and shared. BBQ pulled pork sandwich, Grilled patty melt and French dip....OMG seriously GOOOOOOD food...and Jess and Marcia said their bloody marys were to die for...
We asked some big ol biker dude to take our pic out front!!!
Now...lets play a game with the next pic...it used to be called "Where's Waldo"...this is called "wheres Marcia???"
We like to mess up each others pics by jumping out in front of the camera....
Marcia thought she wanted a picture of the tee pee's..I made sure she knew that she really wanted a picture of ME!!!!! LOL
So....here are a few pics from Volcano...
The town must have known about my "homie status" because they had this sign....
What up Assey?!?!?!
So fortunate to have the GREATEST friends in the world...when one is having a bad moment...the other will cheer you up....we know each other so well...no words need to be spoken when we need something...Yep...greatest girls in the world....
So....since there was not much to see in Volcano...we made it an early day home....BUT of course we stopped again...Jessica wanted pictures of the grape vines...it was HOT out...so Marcia and I stayed in the car...as we are driving down the road, Jess shows us the picture she got. HELLLLOOOOOO...there were grapes on the vines. So, nautrally...we turned that car around and went back to get some grape pics on the vines.....IN THE HEAT!!!!!!
So...thanks for another amazing adventure girls...I look forward to each trip that we take....each adventure we go on....It always starts as a "photography trip" and in the end we create amazing memories...and strengthen our friendship...it's THE BEST TRIP EVER!!!!!!! Love you girls!
Ahhh....This was awesome! Like going down memory lane :) A one day adventure and the friendship is the best part of it. Love you two!!
