|
|
We'll be in Reno the beginning of September and we always like to do a side trip. Been to Tahoe many times. Truckee a few times. Looking for something different. Has anyone been to the Graeagle area, Portola? I like it's on the edge of Lassen National Park. |

You might like Nevada City, California, about 90 miles away. There's lots of information on the web. Here's a link to a pretty informative site.

thanks for the tip on Nevada City... will definitely look that up. I've been to Virginia many times. It's always neat but was looking for something different. |

Have you been to Bodie? This is a very interesting ghost town that has not gone commercial. It is now a state park.

If you go, stop and eat dinner on your trip back at JT's in Gardnerville on hwy 395. Wonderful Basque food. |
