Grass Valley

 We took a break from winter for a couple of days the week before Christmas and drove over the hill to Grass Valley. It was only a few degrees warmer in Grass Valley, but it was a nice break. We arrived in the afternoon, found our place and then went to dinner in Nevada City and wandered around a bit there. The next morning we headed out for a walk along the Hard Rock trail in the Empire Mine State Park.

We followed that with a drive to the Malkoff Diggings


We stopped at a bridge across the Yuba River just as the sun was setting

This is a view if the new bridge from the old bridge

And this is a view of the old bridge from the new bridge


We had a quick dinner and then went to the historic Del Oro movie theater to see the new Avatar movie.  We managed to watch the whole thing in 3D with out getting motion sick, but I can't say that I loved the movie.

The next morning we took a walk on the Wolf Creek trail that wanders through the town of Grass Valley.
