Back in the Land of Fruit and Nuts

We are back in California, having made the four day drive from quiet and rural to noisy and urban. Thank goodness we don't live in a super urban part of CA. When we leave and when we return I try to take a picture of Lake Oroville. 

This September the water level is relatively low. This is probably a good thing because the spillway is not yet fixed and the weather guessers are predicting a wet winter. (We saw a headline on Sunday saying the spillway will not be finished by November 1.) Therefore, a low lake level is a good thing. Click here to see the lake level last year at this time. Click here to see progress being made on the spillway. It's a huge project.

BTW, I named this post the "Land of the Fruit and Nuts" because California produces a lot of fruit and a lot of nuts, both of which are healthy for you.
