The Real Ponderosa

The conference officially opens in about an hour so we'll soon have a lot to report. This morning we had the opportunity to take a tour of Virginia City, the mining town that was the setting for the TV series Bonanza. Our very large tour bus made the precarious ascent over many switchbacks to the Gold Hills where this boom town of old still has many of its original buildings and remnants of its Gold Rush mines. On the way up we stopped to take in the panoramic view and have this photo taken of some of our blog team. Shown l-r are Valerie Diggs, Professional Standards Chair; Gerri Fegan, Northeast Area Co-Director; Ann Perham, Webmaster; Kathy Lowe, Executive Director; Sandy Kelly, President; and Linda Friel, Northeast Area Co-Director. Little Joe and Hoss send their regards!
