Trip to Sacramento/Rocklin/Murphys, CA - March 2010

I headed down to my ususal CA spot to spend time with Renata, Engman, Kayla, Christina, Garrett, Jake and Aidan.    Renata and I went to a crab feed Fri night, benefitting one of the Rocklin SD schools.  Saturday was a trip to Murphys, CA - Murphys is in the Sierra Foothills, about 2 hours south and east of Sacramento.  A really cool little Gold Rush era town with most of the buildings dating from the 1850's/1860's, and about 15 tasting rooms within 3-4 blocks of each other. Great restaurants, and such a pretty drive there and back.  I highly recommend this area, and I plan to go back next February for one of their Passport weekends.  Saturday night, we all went bowling, and I had my highest score ever - 121!!
Sunday we hit the gym to work off the wine and food, then off to The Morgan's for a bbq.  Sun was out on Sunday, and even the temps were decent, so got to sit outside to eat, which is one of my favorite things to do.  I came back on Monday to Seattle, and to a light snow storm (didn't stick) - hoping that IS IT for winter.  I'm soooo ready for spring/summer!!
