Nevada City


What I was most surprised about in California was how old things were. These pictures are from another city that we visited, Nevada City. Nevada City was founded during the California Gold Rush in the 1850s, and it is adorable!




The houses are little and they remind me of gingerbread houses--very ornately decorated.


The place is bursting with little gift stores and various sorts of shops.


And it's all set against a lovely backdrop of pine tree-covered hills (not pictured).


This last picture I just snuck in--it's the cool art deco movie theater from yet another town that we visited, Grass Valley.
