Before leaving Hingham I finally was able to get a picture of this sign. Massachusetts has one for each of their towns and it's such a kick to drive from one town to another and see this sign with date of settlement started. Hard to get pictures because you don't know where the town line begins and there is no place to pull over for a quick stop and picture. It's a bummer. On this one I was lucky enough after a month to be driving towards sign and 1st at stoplight with camera next to me. ha! All these towns are so historic and have some wonderful history. Too bad so many have been neglected. Roads are terrible in most places and some are really run down while others thrive.. just like anywhere. Just interesting observations. I was taken so much with Hingham because we lived there for 5 weeks and it was so CLEAN! Loved the manicured yards and over 1800 historic homes and some still in residence of 13 generations!

Our 1st visit to Manteca and much appreciated sunshine. This 1000 trails campground was closed for a few years since it has flooded (right on San Joaquin river). This is a small campground but lovely setting right in the valley. Nice change from the cold weather up at Yosemite and a surprise visit from son Earl and family for a little b-day celebration! Wonderful of them to think of us. Not a park I could highly recommend but good location for traveling stop and convenient to all shopping...
