Our Calistoga Trip March 26 & 27 2012

Old Faithful of California.
The gyser went off every 5 minutes because
of the rain.  In the summer it only goes off
every 30 to 45 minutes.

Bothe-Napa Valley State Park

The trail to the pioneer cemetery.

The cemetery had head stones outside of this yard also.

This head stone had the oldest dates.

The air was so fresh and the sun was shining. This was a wonderful day for a hike.

I believe this is the Napa River. If you cross this river you get to another park called Bale Grist Mill Park. They have a mill there where people used to grind their wheat and socialize. We didn't cross the river. We will save that for another visit.

The Calistoga Inn is where we stayed. It was clean and quaint. The Inn is European style with only 2 bathrooms to share for the 18 rooms and no television. The building is over 100 years old.

There are lots of shops to browse in and many different restaurants to eat at.

We ate dinner in the Bar and tried some of there beer. The bartender/ waitress was very nice and the meal was good. The bar seemed to be a place that the locals also enjoyed.

The garden at the Rombauer winery, had lots of little trails and picnic benches so on a sunny day you could enjoy your wine, but you have to supply your snack because they don't sell food here.
