We were “back on the bus” with a trip to Nevada City for their annual Victorian Christmas event. The weather was cold but no precipitation.
What a wonderful evening of shopping, dining, and holiday street performers. This was the first trip since 2019. I look forward to scheduling
many bus trips in 2023. I have received some requests so far to visit Napa and Fioli Gardens in Woodside. Please let me know what trips you
would like me to research… I look forward to hearing from you.
