Hungry Con Hambre


Since I arrived here a few weeks ago, I've loved eating the food. I have even gained almost 20 pounds!

Desde que llegue hace unas semanas, me has encantado comer la comida. Hasta casi me he subido 20 libras!

Labor Day

For Labor Day we went to the Feather River Canyon, where I spent much of my childhood.

This is where I grew up.

Braulio in front of a piece of old gold mining equipment.

There are many hydro-electric powerhouses throughout the canyon, as well as many damns. The water was way too cold (for us anyway) to swim much.

These are the flood levels from previous years.
