Thats right, at the high hill ranch parking ran out! you had to go in between the trees! Good 'ol Placerville, known for 2 things: gold and silver mines and the apple orchards. Going to all these places was kinda like going to the pumpkin farms at half moon bay. There were so many of them and each try to attract you in. Some were just sheds on the side, others had straw bale mazes, pony rides. One had a museum, and others had craft stores. It wasn't as busy as we'd thought it would be. Up and down all around the windy road, we couldn't stop at some places, the entrance would be right there before you knew it, it was behind you. Doh! Signs should be posted in advance, at least 150 yards each way.. jeez!
We brought home our groceries for the week, lots of apples and veggies. Fresh apple cider and apple butter? whatcha do with that stuff?
But before we went apple hopping we roamed the streets of old town placerville. Yep i've been hearing stories of this Liar's Bench from the in-laws. Too bad this ain't the one they were talking about. So if theres two liar's bench, whos telling the truth? And yes, there is a bench in front of the place.
