Out for a ride in the agricultural land and more yum.

Big rain inbound off the pacific tomorrow so figured I better get out today. After overnight around freezing it was the kinda day with high humidity 45 degrees, bone chilling weather. My warm and safe jacket liner is the best! Walnuts are one of the many tree and row crops north of Sacramento. 
First time I’ve ever seen this bad boy multi blade tree trimmers, it was friggn awesome.
This creek reminds me of bayou’s in the south.
I used to work in this area 45 years ago so it’s always fun to revisit my early California years. At four corners junction along the Sacramento River I stopped at a small convenience store for lunch.
The special was pork tacos…yum. You just never know who you may meet but I struck up a conversation with Ernie a Vietnam vet. We had a grand visit and left about the same time. As I’m getting ready to leave he pulls up and offers me a bag of very fine fresh crack walnuts from his orchard. A lot of old timers crack walnuts at home in the winter. More yum.
I really enjoyed my visit with Ernie and at 92 he was sharp. I thanked him for the walnuts and his service. A good man right there.
On a damp chilly day the wing was a fine ride. Made it home in time to prepare for the incoming powerful bomb cyclone…geez, that’s what they call a storm these days.
