We drove to Nevada City for an overnighter. The first thing we did after arriving was have a delightful lunch at the New Moon Cafe. Then, while Karen wandered through the stores I walked around picking up 7 caches. We ate dinner at a nice Italian restaurant in Grass Valley before driving to our motel in Marysville.
I cashed in some Choicepoints to get a free night and chose a suite since it required the same number of points as a regular room. Came with a heart shaped two person jacuzzi tub, but no shower. That was a surprise. It’s a large motel out in the sticks, probably build because of Mather AFB, but it looks like business is way off and the motel is looking a little shabby.
The next day we went to Bridgeport (a state park—site of the longest covered bridge in the world) and did a nice loop hike while picking up a couple of caches. Afterwards, we drove some dirt roads for some more caches and then ended in Nevada City again for dinner at Cirinos—very nice. Eleven caches this day.
