"A Trip Back in Time" Columbia Historic State Park by Robachu1

The Drive

We drove to Columbia Historic State Park from Fresno. We left Fresno airport after picking up our car from Dollar Rent A Car. We got a great deal on a Chrysler 300M, $35/day plus one day free. The total bill for 5 days was only about $113.

We found Gold!

Not the gold that the 49ers were looking for back in the Gold Rush but something better. Miles and miles of beautiful California scenery which was covered by a golden carpet. It really caught us by surprise.

Highway 49

Highway 49 was quite an experience. The road was wonderful if I were in a Ferrari, but in the Chrysler the twists and turns and steep cliffs were like a scary roller coaster. I'd love to do it again!
