This morning we awoke with a sense of relief…for one thing we are in a warmer and drier climate…for the most relief of all is the holidays are over. Even though we are no longer overwhelmed with grief that our daughter and grandson are no longer in our lives, this time of the year usually brings about a little bit of sadness. But now even that little bit of sadness has passed and we are onto bigger and better adventures with our heads held high and our hearts opened wide.
Today we did the touristy thing and went sightseeing at Calico Ghost Town…what a unique place. It has a little of everything for everyone, shops of all sorts, working and unusual museums, restaurants and eateries, train rides, and so much more. The admissions are usually a very minimal charge but for today they were free and we enjoyed them all.
Check out their website for more information and
check out our photos of our day trip!

We found Calico a couple of years ago, completely by accident. Turned out it was their annual celebration. Jim won the longest beard contest beating the guy who had won for the previous 4 years. At the time, his beard was 11 1/2 inches not it's closer to 13.
