California – George Murphy

Pacific Ocean

My girlfriend Amy and I visited the Golden Gate Bridge and the state beaches at Montara and San Gregorio.

I spent the morning and afternoon in San Diego with my sister Fay and her husband Steve.

I tagged along with my brother and his daughter on a day trip to Old Sacramento.

The Seventeen Mile Drive on the Monterey Peninsula is a famous and scenic tourist attraction.

Point Lobos is a state park located on the Pacific Ocean coastline several miles south of Monterey.

I took a long route via San Francisco, Pacifica, Half Moon Bay, Santa Cruz, and Watsonville to reach Monterey.

I took the long route from Angels Camp to the Bay Area via California route 4.

I woke early this morning and began my drive from Angels Camp to Yosemite National Park.

Angels Camp in Calaveras County is famous for its annual Jumping Frog Jubilee.

Murphys is located 9 miles northeast of Angels Camp on California state route 4.

Gold mining was the driving force behind early development of Sonora as a community.

I hopped in my car and drove east to visit California's "Gold Country" in Tuolomne and Calaveras Counties.
