Road Trippin' back to the 951!

Visiting the Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery.  It was closed, but still gorgeous!

The ducks were hungry.  We fed them Schat's Bakery bread!

We fed the fish too!

Funny how food helps you to make all sorts of friends!

Can you find us?

Papa told us where to find a tree that had fallen over and smashed a house.  No one lives there, so they just left it!

Danni and Daddy explored...

We visited Manzanar too... this is the memorial in their cemetery.

People leave strings of 1000 cranes there for good luck.

I liked the old Manzanar fire truck!

On the bridge that Papa Don and Papa built!

Scaring away all of the fish.

The creek was so low!  Dumb drought!

I liked hanging by the creek!

We found where Papa wrote his name in the cement - right by his handprint!  He was just a little boy when he did it!

It was a LONG ride home from Mammoth... and we made it even longer by stopping to see a bunch of interesting things along the way!  We first checked out another fish hatchery.  This one was not operational in the winter time like the one in Mammoth was.  It only had fish in the front pond - who were very happy to have a snack of Schat's Bakery bread!  The ducks in the pond were glad to see us too!!!  Next, we stopped in Manzanar.  We took a car tour and then explored the visitor center. Danni and I aren't quite old enough to grasp what happened there, but we understood that it wasn't good!  We also made a stop in Lone Pine to check out where the family cabin used to be.  Mommy showed us the 'Pink Creek' and the bridge that her grandpa and our Papa made.  It looks like it would have been a cool place to play!!  We finally made it home... 9 hours  and two stops at McDonald's later!!  Road Trippin' is fun!!
