WHO KNEW !

My humans found tacos here in Cache Creek, Canada. We haven’t seen any Mexican food in Alaska or Canada since we left the United States in June. Of course they had to stop there for lunch. A small kitchen where the customers ordered food to go and lots of patio and outdoor seating. There were so many people there that it was amazing. Lots of cars and bikers too! A limited menu, but great food.

Just when you were thinking there wasn’t anything else to do here, there was also a very large Farmers Market in town with all kinds of produce and prepared goods for sale. Since we are crossing the border tomorrow the produce buying was limited to some fresh corn and a peach pie for dinner tonight. That didn’t stop them from buying a giant frozen chicken pot pie and several jars of jam. The Taylors stocked up on homemade sausages. It’s all about food with this group.

If that wasn’t enough excitement for you, it was time for a little history lesson. Not too far from where we are camped is the Historic Hat Creek Ranch.  Located on the historic “Cariboo” Wagon Road is the ranch with over 300 acres of farmyards, fields and range land. There are twenty historic wooden buildings dating back to 1861. The original Roadhouse interior was recreated with furniture and fixtures as it might have been when it was used as a transportation hub from 1863 to 1913. They even had an original Edison Victrola with the wax recording rolls. The docent played a waltz and helped transport us back in time.
