My parents moved our family to Nevada County, California in the mid 1960s at the beginning of my senior year of high school. We lived in Grass Valley, which is a twin city to Nevada City in the heart of the Northern California gold country. I soon left for Sacramento where I attended college and then worked for years.
About 1990 I moved back to Nevada County, this time to Nevada City, where I lived for the next five years before moving with my wife and then-young daughter to Seattle. Here is a little video I put together a few years ago about Nevada City. I'm writing this now on Feb. 2, 2011: I'm headed to Nevada City tomorrow for a short visit.
