Day 6. Friday, August 4, 2017 Continued.......
 We had a great day and are ready to relax now. We drove out to an area where my family and I had a cabin on the lake.  We weren't able to drive in so Iri could see it close up because cars were there. I was surprised at how many of the names on the cabins near us are the same as 50+ years ago.  Here is a picture of Mt. Lassen. Hard to see because of the haze but it has more snow than last year.


Camp Prattville was a small store not far from our cabin. When we were kids, we would walk to the store through a campground.  That campground is now beautiful cabins!  We just had to get an ice cream cone and a milkshake. Hand made!!


When we came back into Chester, we drove by Iri's Grandpa Jim's house where he grew up.


Grandpa Jim's parents and a grandmother (Iri's great grand parents and great-great grandmother) are buried in the Chester Cemetery.  A beautiful peaceful setting amongst the pines.





Next we drove to North Shore Campground where my sister, Jackie, has a travel trailer parked for the season. We sat on the porch and enjoyed the lake.  Was windy but felt good because it was pretty warm.







We finished the day with dinner at Burger Depot.  Was excellent!! And super nice people.  Time to rest and put our feet up and catch up on electronics :-)
Tomorrow we head for the valley and Chico, Calif. where I was born and grew up in that area and her dad went to school.  Heard there might be a little relief in sight from the heat wave going on.  Then on over to Ft. Bragg, a fishing port on the coast of the Pacific Ocean where it will likely be cold and foggy.   Another well loved place  (not as well loved as Almanor tho).
Have a good night.  Hugs.
