    California Cavern State Historic Landmark - Inside the cave

    What a cool experience. Got there for the 10:00 am tour, and I was the only guest. The walk to…read morethe cave is only about five minutes, but there's no shade so the earlier the better as the temps heat up. Inside the cave is about 50°. I have no issues with claustrophobia, but if you do there is one tight squeeze that might be a problem. Cash, my tour guide, turned off the lights (after asking my permission) and we experienced total darkness for maybe thirty seconds. It felt like two hours, and I hated it , but still neat and recommend trying if offered. Use the hand rails. They are there for your safety.

    The drive here is much more involved than Mercer Caverns with more windy and narrow roads. Once you…read moreget closer the space opens up to a large parking lot and shop you meet at. We were the only ones that signed up for the earliest tour that day and were lucky to have a private tour. The tour has informative history about the caverns with landmarks along the way. The most interesting thing we didn't know about is they have caving adventure tours where you shimny through holes and narrow spaces with a guide but our kids aren't old enough to partake. This was the first show cave in California and townspeople lived in them during harsh winters in the 1800s. There was a bar inside and a church and nails were even given to people to carve on the walls. Because of this there are signs of harm everywhere with soot, broken formations, and dirty coloration from human hand oils and even champagne poured on a rock formation. The caverns are huge and beautiful with some jaw-dropoing rooms. The walking tour is very safe though we loved the slight danger and claustrophobic feel of the Mercer Caverns. When you leave the shop has some cool historical items pulled from the caves on display like glass bottles, etc .. that are worth checking out.

They really took the time and gave us some historical background information on the city of Locke. The town is still very active and a great place to host wedding, concerts, farmers markets and even filming. The have antique stores, gift shops, a bar, a community garden, the entire town is a time capsule into the only town in America to have been built by Chinese for the Chinese in 1919. The is a dying gem b/c its mostly run and operated by people whom have ties somehow to the town. Although other ethnicities live there now and it's no longer a Chinese habitual it's still a very amazing part of the greater Sacramento County and its history

    I love visiting Locke. It's such a cool little town and honestly feels like stepping back in time…read more Walking down the street and seeing the original buildings, museums, and small shops makes you realize how much history is still preserved here. There's something really special about Locke. It hasn't lost its character and doesn't feel overly touristy. You can just walk around, read the historic markers, explore, and take everything in at your own pace. I think everyone should visit at least once, especially if you live nearby. It's an awesome way to learn about local history and experience a part of the Delta that still feels authentic and untouched. Definitely one of my favorite places to spend an afternoon.

    After grabbing dinner for a birthday celebration, we planned on going bowling. We arrived next door…read moreat the Alley, and the vibe just wasn't for us. It was stupidly crowded, music so loud we had to yell at eachother. The place had more of a bar/club vibe than anything else. We decided to wander next door and check out the mini golf instead. Some 2000's throwback music was playing (but not obnoxiously loud) , a kids birthday party was wrapping up in the corner, and a handful of couples seemed to be enjoying their date nights. We decided to give this place a try. Overall it was a solid choice of entertainment for the evening. But I took a few stars away for the following reasons: 1. Cleanliness could be better. I sure hope they sanitize regularly. Might I even suggest hand sanitizer available and trash cans throughout the course. 2. The putting green where you place the ball at the start of each hole we're loose and spinning or completely detached on many of the holes. It made it difficult to hit the ball without making it move and fumble. These need to get repaired

We were able to go at our own pace without feeling the need to rush, so that was nice. As for the courses, they were okay. I wish they were more spaced out. At the end of each course and near the hole, there's a part where the barrier is low. Our balls kept going out and into the next course, which was a little annoying. In course 3, my cousin's ball got stuck in the castle/building prop. We were really confused when the ball didn't come out the other side, but we were able to find and take it out of the hole it was stuck in. Overall, we still had fun, but I don't know if I would come here again.

    We recently visited FairyTale Town with our two toddlers and absolutely loved it! If you're in…read moreSacramento with little ones, this is easily one of the best ways to spend a morning or afternoon. You can easily spend half a day here without anyone getting bored. What We Loved Immersive Play: The range of play structures is incredible. Our kids were obsessed with the recreations of famous children's books--walking through Mr. McGregor's Farm felt like stepping right into a storybook. Animals & Nature: Beyond the slides and climbing, the petting zoo and the peaceful Japanese pond (Urashima Taro) provided a great change of pace for the kids. Interactive Learning: The children's theatre is a gem. They have dedicated storytime and puppet shows that kept the toddlers completely engaged. Why It's a Must-Visit What makes this place even more amazing is that it's a non-profit. Knowing that your $10 admission (an absolute steal for the quality of the park!) goes back into maintaining such a creative space for the community makes the experience even better. It's right across from the Sacramento Zoo, so you can make a full day of it in Land Park if you have the energy! Perfect for ages 1-6, but even older kids will enjoy the nostalgia and creative structures.

    Amusement park in Sac (Land Park)…read more Currently, admission is $10/person. (Kids under two are free.) They also have some member options that are worth it if you plan to go frequently. Parking can get a bit difficult, since it's also close to the Zoo and Funderland. There are areas to slide, climb, and play. Also, there are animals (goats, rabbits, chickens/rooster, ox, mini horse, pigs) inside. The gift shop mostly contains generic items that don't say Fairytale Town, which don't make for the best of souvenirs. If you've never been here before, you can likely count on your kid enjoying at least a couple of hours here before getting bored. I'd say it's geared more for the younger children...older kids would probably benefit more from visiting the other two nearby attractions.

The school house was named…read moreafter James brother-in-law (John Pierce Rhoads) whom was one of the rescuers of the Donner Party. In 1872 the school had to be closed due to the fact that children were getting sick from malaria. The malaria was spread by mosquitoes from Cosumnes River. Shortly after a new school house was built on Sloughhouse Road and stayed open until 1949. The Elk Grove Historical Society completed the restoration of the school house in 1977 and moved it to the Elk Grove Regional Park. Today the school house serves as a meeting room for the historical society, a living history museum for school children where they can see and experience life in the 1800's. This is a place where children as well as adults would find very interesting. If interested, please call the "Elk Grove Historical Society for dates and time. Enjoy!

Recently, I chaperoned a 3rd grade field trip to the Rhoad's School House and enjoyed most of the experience. I believe theres an organization who volunteers to do this experiment. Upon our arrival, we were given popular names from back in the 1880s. My name was Mistress Smith. The teacher gave an introduction and laid out the rules for the kids before starting. She did a great job acting out what it would be like back in the day; being stern with the kids especially. I don't want to explain too much of what actually happened because I want you to experience it for yourselves. Basically, it's in an actual school house that was restored by students with a lot of the original wood and studs. Throughout the classroom you'll find antiques and trinkets that may or may not have been found with the original school house, a fire place that we actually used for heat, some historical pics of the restoration, and so much more. The kids did activities like jacks, stilts and pen writing with a pen and feather. A huge con for me was I spent more time taking the kids to use the bathrooms across from the school house. There's not path either and the grass was wet so my shoes got dirty and I had to make sure my costume rental wouldn't get messed up. Overall, I enjoyed the experience but the kids not so much. I just don't think 3rd graders can appreciate the experience so maybe another year or so would've been a different story.
