Downieville, CA


This is from an old train station in Roseville, near Sacramento.


The rest are from Downieville--a little gold rush town that we passed through on the way back from Portola. Word is, it used to be in the running for state capitol of California.



There were plaques all through town with crazy stories of the lawless gold rush days.


Obviously they aren't short on Christmas trees: they were decorating most of the posts.
