We were lucky enough to visit the dam on a beautiful day in spring…read more You can drive over the dam and there is plenty of parking on the other side, and even a picnic area. We had lunch and enjoyed the great weather and beautiful views. People were walking, biking and even roller skating over the dam. There is lots of educational information on the dam to read. The area is locked between 11pm and 5 am but otherwise open to the public and free for everyone to enjoy.

When I was in Oroville last year, I finally visited this area. And glad I did!…read more I took a walk along the walkway with a stunning view of the lake on one side and a breathtaking view of the town on the other. People walk, like I did, jog, walk their dogs, or just take a nice stroll through here. I went on a beautifully sunny day and was amazed by the sight and atmosphere of the area. Would gladly come by and take another walk in the future, because I wasn't able to explore the whole area.

Visited again in 2020 while there updating my retired ID card. It appeared unchanged. Felt kind of timeless. I visited from overhead a few times since with Google Maps. Today, I searched for it. It appears to have been removed. That would be a sad thing. Probably political correctness of some kind. Some of the drawings were definitely of the pinup variety.

I had a chance to see the Beale POW Camp years ago. We were with a military friend who lived near…read moreand had a pass so no issues getting in. We went over to the concrete confinement cell block where German WWII prisoners who caused trouble in the camp had been kept. There were mostly Germans in the camp but possibly a few Italians, mainly captured by Rommel's forces in Africa. We were able to walk around the cell block and look inside through the small windows to see the writing and drawings on the walls. Some of the drawings were rather impressive art work. That is all that is left of the prison area, 10 tiny rooms, each about the size of a box stall for a horse. There were not all that many pows there, I think they only had about 1000 prisoners at the most at this base. Most of the camps were small. 46 of the 48 states had pow camps, with most camps in the southern and southwestern states, but the many small camps held a large number of prisoners when added together.

If you're into the history behind the California Gold rush, then this town is a must see! A mining…read morecompany from Wisconsin came here to wash away Mountains using water under high pressure, through water cannons called monitors. They and other mining companies made things so bad for the farmers downstream that legislators had to pass laws prohibiting further use of this method due to huge environmental issues. This town succeeded from the Union, way back, to avoid taxes on the gold they were harvesting. That didn't last. There are only a couple of towns left in this area after the gold rush. This was was very interesting and has a rich history.

Everywhere we ventured in NC, every store, boutique, jeweler, bar, restaurant and lodging were full of charm and had very nice people who were more than willing to answer questions, offer suggestions, provide excellent service and delicious food and drink.

i live in alta sierra and have had theft, vandalism, trespassing issues. it usually takes around 45…read moreminutes after calling in to even get a call back and then its pretty much them asking if you have cameras. if you dont have cameras that cover your whole property then they won't do anything. what happened to the days before cameras? the days of law enforcement actually doing their job instead of an electronic device? with trespassing even if you get it on video each deputy tells you something different and nothing is ever done to enforce the law! even better when you call because a bunch of junior high kids are roaming the streets after curfew causing trouble, nothing is done! then expect vandalism and property damage! which no one will come out to take a report about if you don't catch it on camera! even if you do, good luck because there will be some other pathetic excuse for not doing their job! i love hearing we were on another call and then looking at the log the next day to discover that's a total crock! so disappointing! good luck if you ever actually need them because it'll take 45 minutes to even get a call back! i also hope you like being treated terribly and like you are a waste of time by dispatch because they have zero tact and will treat you like dirt

Eh! I have nothing against the Superior Court of California-Sutter. All Court Employees have been…read moresuper professional and the latrines are surprisingly clean and fully stock of toilet paper. It's just that going to court gives me anxiety as the reason why I deducted 1 star, LOL! But I do know we have them for a reason. As their mission states, "To resolve disputes assuring that individuals are not deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law or denied equal protection of the law." (Superior Court of Sutter). Sometimes you win a dispute/case and not pay anything and win your freedom or anxiety of owing a fine/bill, sometimes you lose a dispute/case then pay the fine, and sometimes you are summoned for jury duty just to watch the trial. The trial may not be Judge Judy like trial where there's some humor into the case, but the judge does show some slight humor in regards of tying the case back to the Law if found guilty. As the judge will not show favorites between the defendant and the prosecutor. Tips to win a case: 1. Provide important key evidence! Such as photos, videos, documents, and/or witnesses to make your dispute much stronger to win a case to prove yourself innocent. 2. Hire the best lawyer. (optional). 3. Be confident and have good body language. Speak professionally (avoid curse languages). 4. Treat all court employees nicely (never show aggression). 5. Be prepared to share your story in a clear concise manner, provide timelines if possible and stick to it if you'll be summoned again. 6. Stay kind and calm at all times. 7. Attend your trial if you can make it. If you can't make it (re-schedule in a timely manner preferably 2-3wks in advance prior to your trial date). Tips to lose a case: 1. Don't be over confident or too cocky. 2. Steps from 1-7 from "Tips to win a case", just exactly the opposite. LOL! Important note: Attend your jury duty if you've been summoned! It's part of being the world's greatest American Citizen aka You to partake. Plus who knows, you can sorta mentally prepare down the future if you were to be in the same situation as the defendant on how to win/lose a case if you were to be in their shoes. Namm sayinn..
