You might notice that our blog’s layout has changed a bit, the reason we changed it is so that we can post bigger images!

Also, don’t forget to enter our summer giveaway!

Nevada City-Pure Fun

Every once and awhile, my husband and I will hop in the car and take a drive. I'm sure you know the feeling...stopping by a local convenient store to pick up a cool drink, pumping up the gas tank full, heading off according to the directions of Google maps to some unknown place, all the while enjoying each others company, music and the scenery. Ahh...yes, going for a drive. It must be the "spirit of exploration" that the early pioneers had that we share so deep. So...we ventured to Nevada City, which coincidentally, isn't in Nevada at all, but rather California! An early town, established in the 1800's during the gold rush, still had the essence of history that my husband and I enjoyed. We talked, we walked, we ate scrumptious food, enjoyed...
