Happy Housewarming Chuck!!

This past fall, my brother-in-law Chuck Jackson had a chance to stay at his new house in Loyalton, CA.   Loyalton is a small town located about 40 minutes north of Truckee and it is as different from Truckee as night is from day.  Only one grocery story, one bar, couple of breakfast places and that about sums it up.  Great little ice cream stand tho — Rhonda’s little Tasty Freeze.  Anyone who has been to Loyalton knows it.  Rhonda gives out free soft serve ice cream to doggies when their owners purchase something to eat.

Chuck’s house is located on the edge of  the Sierra Brooks subdivision.   It borders a creek, California Fish and Game property and looks out onto the forestland.

Chuck was  brought up on the east coast in New Jersey and currently lives and works in Paris, France  This new home serves as a perfect counterpoint to the hurried, big city, fast pace life he lives on the continent.

Well, while Chuck was in town we had to warm his new house so here is a picture of the housewarmers.  Chuck, the newest citizen of Loyalton and California is the 2nd from the left.   Welcome to the Sierras Chuck!  Looking forward to seeing you more often on this side of the pond.
