My old hometown, Nevada City, California

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.

  1. I have some very warm, fond memories of Nevada City, certainly including our visit to you and the family one Halloween night. Carolann and I were married not far from there and when it's Christmas time Nevada City is decked out like a Thomas Kinkade painting.

    Incidentally, your narrations of your videos are superb!
