Fish Hatchery/Visitor's Center Field Trip

Yesterday, Tuesday, October 1, 2013, I was blessed with going along on Zach's first field trip of the year. We went to the viewing center at the fish ladder, the observation deck above the base of the fish ladder overlooking the Feather River at the diversion dam, and then up to the visitor's center. So much to see. I am truly not sure who had more fun, Zach or me. What a special day. Thank You God for prompting me to make the right choice and go!

and try to touch the fish. UGH!!!)

Honestly not my favorite, who likes having their picture taken

BUT it is cool to mean enough to him to have him take it.
