Cherry Boondoggle


We decided to do a winter boondoggle out to Cherry to see what we could see!  The first thing we see is a water plane tootling around the lake.  It floated around for awhile and then took off!


Jim spent some time flying the drone while G and I hiked around with the dogs.  Then we had a little picnic and soaked up the sun.


Cottonwood road to Sonora was completely covered with snow


I wanted a new rock for the front yard, so we went on a hunt!  We found this cool piece of broken granite with red coloring.


This is one of the hardest hit areas from the Rim Fire - you can still see how completely devastated it is almost 6 years later.



We stopped at the river to do some more drone flying.  It will be cool to see the footage because he flew it way up the river.


This was an interesting find - at Early Intake there was a pile of old scrap.  We figured it was for some old pully or flume system.  I wonder where it came from.

All in all, a good boondoggle!
