I don't blame anyone in particular for the housing crisis. We are all just trying to scrape a living out here in the sticks. Anyway, downtown Mariposa is a heartfelt spot, and a time capsule of California's history, with nary a street light. Most of the town is easily walkable. We do have parades at certain holidays. Then there's the county fair at the end of summer, and the car show in October. The shops themselves offer a great variety of gifts, whether they be Route 66 or Yosemite paraphernalia, toys aplenty, Coast Hardware, a fair trade clothing store (Anahata), art gallery, wine tasting, craft beer bars, and more. Food options are plenty. The Pizza Factory has an all-you-can-eat lunch special. There's a BBQ joint that recently opened too. Boba tea, ramen, burgers, and fancy dinners at Savory's or Charles Street Dinner House. Down the way a bit, across from the cozy Mariposa History Museum are two local titans of burger joints, which happily co-exist Happy Burger Diner boasts a massive selection, offers senior (55+) discounts, and features an outdoor section with a couple of simple kids' rides and air hockey. 1850 next door sells savory burgers and a vast menu of excellent local craft beers. Check local schedules at the welcome center, or the bulletin board at the High Country Health Food Store. This lovely little store has a wide selection of healthy foods, supplements, and cafe and restaurant, fresh produce, and just about everything you need. Rite Aid is across the street, and beyond, PDQ, which has the self-powered car wash and the laundromat. Forgive me if this sounds like a rushed tour. The historic courthouse and library are also must-sees. Friendly locals will be glad to point you in the right direction, should you need anything. One last thing, the tire shop by the post office provides excellent and prompt service. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

I observed a handful of reasonable thrift and antique stores, lame tourist traps that sell rocks and minerals, a few manly steakhouses, a little diner, dive bars and upscale bars, a few mediocre Mexican joints, a couple little art parks and a significant public park up the hill. I walked around and popped into a whole bunch of shops and spent about an hour on the half-mile strip. You could probably spend more time if you're one of those people that's in the shopping. I really wanted to check out the bar, the Alley, but they I closed on Mondays and on other days they don't open until 4:00. Caught a cool wildlife talk at The Local Grape, a cozy wine bar. I did a little research and found an amazing hike, with a trailhead that is just half a mile from downtown. Check out the Stockton Creek Preserve. Amazing wildlife mural by Ink Dwell next to Grizzly Gas, can't miss!

I joined a photo walk with Lucas from the gallery. Since I was the only participant that afternoon, he went above and beyond -- taking me to several iconic Yosemite locations where Ansel Adams created some of his famous images. He even gave me a glimpse of the photographer's home attached to the gallery. Lucas was incredibly generous with his time and knowledge, and it made for an unforgettable experience. Shoutout also to Ian from the gallery, who was prompt, friendly, and professional in his email communication before my visit. If you're seeking inspiration from both Yosemite's natural beauty and the legacy of a master photographer, this gallery is a required stop. I will definitely be returning.

This site is always extremely hot during the Labor day weekend. 110 degrees in 2017. It does not cool off at night and you should expect to be exposed to over 100 degree temps for over 12 hours straight. Please do not bring children to this festival, it is dangerous! There is very little natural shade there, it is barren ground that soaks up the heat like a radiator, and water must be carried to your camp. I saw several kids vomiting from heat stress. Seniors were affected too! The only immediate escape from the heat is to get into one's car and turn on the AC. The Tuolumne City pool is not close by at all and a kid could easily suffer heat stroke just trying to walk there. Shame on the promoters for the use of their cartoonish map which deceptively depicts lush trees on the periphery of the property. Actually, there only a few trees which offer shade and those places are always taken by staff long before the public arrives. Shame again on the promoters for using photos from the Grass Valley spring festival where there many trees on the web page that represents the fall festival. Thats just plain dishonest!  Since the morning temperature usually hits 80 degrees by 8:00 AM, the chemical toilets become stinking 300+ degree solar ovens that emit a  nauseating stench that one can smell from far, far away.  The only good thing about the fall Strawberry fest was Tim O'Brien( Hot Rize, Red Knuckles), whom we love, but never again will we attend the fall Strawberry "torture" festival in Tuolumne City, CA.  Raging R.
