We started the day with a car wash that was actually done by hand for $8 dollars. We scarcely recognized our car. A quick trip into Sacramento brought us to the site of John Sutter's Fort, which is located right across the street from the Pioneer Congregational Church, UCC. We had a quick tour there, and then headed to the Railroad Museum. We ate a picnic off the trunk of our car in the parking garage, and then had a great time in the museum. It is extremely well done. Then we walked around Old Sacramento, which is the original tourist trap, but high prices for simple items aside, it looks great. We then walked around the State Capitol, a longer walk than we had been doing recently. We rewarded ourselves with fat free frozen yogurt, which you serve yourself. This is a reward that Bill is very partial to. Traffic was heavy on our way back to the campground, a reminder that beautiful as California is, it is jammed with people. Our scouts had a campfire which kept Judy in the car much of the evening, but they went to bed in a timely fashion, as did we.
