Olancha~Scenic Sunday for 042411

I debated about posting about our Sierra trip on this blog, since I do have another blog devoted to California (http://dunestopines.blogspot.com), but I decided since the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power did turn paradise into a desert, I would also post our photos from our last trip here. Anyway, hubby and I headed up to the eastern Sierras last Sunday. We stayed overnight in Hesperia, which cut an hour's driving time off our trip Monday. Both of us don't feel like we are in the Sierras until we have breakfast at the Ranch House Cafe in Olancha, which is along Highway 395, near the Crystal Geyser bottling plant. On this morning, the cattle were being loaded into trailers (see pics) and it was quite noisy! If you haven't stopped at the Ranch House Cafe, I suggest that you do! It's a quaint little cafe with decent food, about an hour south of Lone Pine. I'll be detailing the rest of our trip here and on my other blog this week. Scenic Sunday for April 24, 2011.
