The Tumco Historic Site is an abandoned gold mining town and is historic for being one of the…read moreearliest gold mining areas in California. It'd history spanned some 300 years, with periods of boom and bust. Over 200,000 ounces of gold was taken from the mines in the area, unfortunately, none in my pockets when we were there. We went out to see the area just to get out of the house during the quarantine. It's the perfect area to be pretty much alone to hike, talk short walks, look at spring flowers and see the remnants of an old gold mine. The good news is that it's a not a long drive off Hwy. 8. If you have some time, it could be a fun place for you to explore. Keep an eye out for rattlesnakes and scorpions that roam the desert.

What a great place to camp (we stayed for a week). It can be quite windy so be prepared for that,…read morebut the historical hike is so nice. Don't get me wrong most things have disappeared through the 300 or so years but you can still make out where things would have been. It's a very beautiful area with great hiking. And, plenty of space for our RV so we're well away from others if we wanted to be.

I recently attended a meeting here. It was what you'd expect from a library; quiet, spacious,…read morerelevant and accessible. A new(er) addition were the solar panels providing car shade from that sun, a win-win in my book! The Heritage Library nearby is awesome too as this one, but on larger scale. Take your pick!

No food allowed inside which is totally understandable and kept the place perfectly clean. Librarians were helpful and kind, and the parking lot had plenty of spots and solar panels! We loved it here for the couple of days we were visiting.

Martha C. patiently walked me through the process of obtaining proper documentation and information for my issue. The customer service is worth the initial walk - in.

Quilter St. Beyond that, everything basically is the same as the previous review, to include updated and upgraded technology and it's more accessible from the main roads, sharing a parking lot with the pool and theater, next to the Post Office.

I said something about discrimination and was immediately told if I did that I could have my license suspended for a year. On my 2nd try before we started I asked the instructor if he could see my speedometer and he said yes its digital when indeed its not. this test was taken in a 2015 GMC Sierra 4x4 where the speedometer is on the right side on the dash board making it difficult to see from the passenger seat. Reason for bringing that up is they were marking me too fast or too slow. Among other things as well. And nothing I can do about it without recourse.

I came on the last day of the month before my vehicle registration expired (I know, my fault) and,…read moreobserving the line outside I thought I'd be in this hot sun forever... ...however, it wasn't the case! The line moved at a steady pace as the staff separated those with appointments and those who didn't (that was me). I waited like 15 minutes before I was let inside to pay the renewal fee. And that took all of 10 minutes! They also had a kiosk of sorts outside the exit signing people up to register to vote...I did that too. Two for the price of one! Consider taking care of business online, if waiting in line is not your thing. If it is your thing, going online and making an appointment before you arrive might be the best bet.
