> BrendaValley Springs actually, in Calaveras County. Remember the Mark Twain story of the frog jump? School is out for 2 days later this month for the County Fair. You know you are in a small town when that happens. The nearest Wal-Mart is in Jackson- a curvy, 30 min. away. There is no private psychiatrist in the entire county. We have to drive 1 hour to Stockton or Sacramento.
My favorite place is up the coast and then inland an hour at Ukiah, vineyards, Redwoods, wonderful weather. And friends. It has been more difficult making friends here, which is depressing to me.
