Day 80
6/21/14
Zero in Sierra City

Slept in, ate, walked around town, ate and ate some more. This weekend was the 150 anniversary of Sierra City. Talked to 90 year old C.K. Smith whose father was born in Sierra City. He and his wife have been married 67 years. He was on a hunting trip years ago when his hunting partner found a 26 ounce gold nugget. I’m going to start looking on the trail for one of those!

Later in the day Atlas and I walked back to the store and found Ghost and Turkey Feather.

We brought them back to the house where Dean cooked us up an amazing feast. I think I’ve gained weight this week. That is a very good thing.
