What is it about the open road thatsso alluring? Is it the prospect ofleaving it all behind, if even just for

a day?

Or the fact that exploring the countryvia automobile has been glamorized inprint and on film for decades? From Ker-ouacs On the Roadto Steinbecks Travelswith Charley, cross-country adventures fitright into the ever-expanding freewayculture of the 50s,and the boomers ran OK drove with it.

Not that road tripswere anything new.Hope and Crosby hadbeen on the Roadsince 1940. And theClark Gable/ClaudetteColbert romp, It Happened One Night,swept the Oscars in 1934, proving thateven back then audiences had a hanker-ing for hitting the highway. Hollywoodtook notice. From Easy Rider to DueDate, screens large and small have been

jammed with Thelmas and Louises andLittle Miss Sunshines working their wayacross this great land of ours.

But around here, we dont need thatextreme an escape. After all, who wantsto leave the beautiful foothills? No, mostof us would be satisfied getting away forthe day and seeing something new andof interest. Cub Scouts call them go-see-ums. Teenagers call it doing time withthe parents. But I just call them day tripsand this months Entertainer takes a look

at a few things going on in the area thatyou might want to check out.They can be within walking distance

for some or an hour drive for others, butnone require a huge commitment oftime or money, just a willingness to getout of the house, if only for a day.

Here, its a state of historicpreservation, said Matt Green, sec-tor superintendent with CaliforniaState Parks. Its really a dynamicpiece of property. For good or bad,besides the early Native Americanculture, its what defined California.

The good that he refers to isMalakoff Diggins, the State Park

which features not only the historictown of North Bloomfield, but theindustry which it was born out of.

Which brings us to the bad. Whilehydraulic mining was an efficientmeans of extracting gold frommountains, it was an environmentaldisaster, the impact of which was

felt not only at the site but milesdownstream. In the case of Malakoff

Diggins, which is located 26 milesnortheast of Nevada City, sedimentfrom the mining operation workedits way down creeks and rivers allthe way to San Francisco, exasperat-ing Sacramento Valley farmersalong the way.

Which brings us back to thegood. Because of its negativeimpact on agriculture, legisla-tion was set in place in 1884which outlawed hydraulic min-ing. OK, thats not good if min-ing is your business, but it didpave the way for the inventionof sediment detention struc-tures and by 1893, hydraulicmining, on a much smallerscale, was back in business.

ut North Bloomfieldsbusiest days werebehind her.The heyday was the 1870s,

said Debbie Pfanner, the seniorpark aide at Malakoff Digginsfor eight years. Fifteen-hun-dred to eighteen-hundred peo-ple lived here in 200 buildings.

A handful of those buildingstill stand, a few with residents,but most serve as well-restoredexamples of 19th century life,like the general store, wherelanterns still provide the onlylight, save that which pours

through the windows on sunnydays.

The store never had electric-ity, Pfanner said. It was builtin 1870 and was always a gener-al store until it closed its doorsin 1941.

Across the street, one of thebuildings has been turned intoa museum, which, along withthe general store, is chock fullof interesting items from a

bygone era.I enjoy the artifacts in the

museum, said B.J. Griffin.They are pretty amazing, notonly mining implements butremnants of a way of life. Itgives you a really good idea ofhow they lived. It makes thewhole foothills area make moresense.

Griffin, a retired NationalParks employee from Grass Val-

ley, was here on this rainy AprilFriday with her son and daugh-ter-in-law from Shreveport, La.

I appreciate all of the historyhere, she said. Its such aunique spot. I brought my sonand his wife from Louisiana. Itold them You wont ever seeanything like this.

By this, she means the Dig-gins Pit, a 7,000-foot long,3,000-foot wide, 600-foot deeptestament to the marriage ofavarice and ingenuity.

By shooting water againstthe hillside, funneled throughmonitors and canvas tubing,they were able to mine the gold

more efficiently, Green said,But it took away the hillsideand it created Diggins Pit.

The monitors were otherwiseknown as water cannons and atfull operation there were sevenrunning around the clock.Their blasts resonate to this dayin the form of the pit, wheresecond and third generationgrowth sprouts up from therubble.

It was a negative environ-mentally but the positive is, itsa piece of history, Green said.

A history that included twoChinese communities and alarge enough presence ofFrench inhabitants to perhapsinfluence the work sites name

(the French scored a huge battle victory at FortMalakov in Russia during the Crimean War). Anothertheory is that is was named after a rock abutmentabove the harbor in Cornwall, England, and therewas definitely no shortage of Cornish miners in thearea (pasties anyone?).

But it will be 20th century people who determinethe future of Malakoff Diggins State Park. Twice, inboth 2008 and 2012, the park narrowly escaped clo-sure at the hands of budgetary cuts. After years ofreduced hours and scaled back staff, the park isbeginning to see a resurgence of interest. The camp-ground will reopen this month after a three-year hia-tus.

Camping was our anchor business, it drove peo-ple to the town, Green said. Then again, a lot ofcampers come here and never make it into town.

The Chute Hill Campground has 30 family sites

with potable water and flush toilet restrooms.Three historically restored cabins are also available

to stay in. They sleep four and have a table, sink andwood stove inside, and a picnic table and fire pit withgrill outside. There is no electricity in the cabins andthe restroom is a short walk away. Dogs on leashesare welcome throughout the park.

There is catch-and-release fishing at Blair Pond, amining claim that was dammed up in the 1860s andmade into the town reservoir. On May 10, an annualfishing derby will welcome 100 children ages 15 andunder to try to their hand at landing the big one.

iking is another feature as the park boasts20 miles of trails with elevation gainsranging from 13 to more than 1,000 feet.We are here and we want visitation, Pfanner

said.Larry Clark, a retired park ranger and a member of

the nonprofit Malakoff Diggins Park Association,considers the park one of the best-kept secrets in thestate, a secret he hopes will get out.

Matt Green, sector superintendent, andDebbie Pfanner, senior park aide, standbeside a monitor, otherwise known as awater cannon, that shot a high-pressurestream of water at gold-bearing hillsides.

DIRECTIONS

From Nevada City, travel 11 milesnorth on Highway 49 toward

Downieville. Turn right on TylerFoote Road. The road remainspaved, but changes names a fewtimes (Cruzon Grade Road, BackBone Road, Derbec Road, NorthBloomfield Road). The park is 26miles from Nevada City.

There are secrets that still exist in this world andthis is one of them. Clark said. Its a classic exam-ple of our history and heritage in California. To me,Blair pond is just the most serene, idyllic placearound.

Clark should know. He was the supervising rangerthere for 12 years (1993-2005). He understands thatbudgets go through tight times, then not so tighttimes, then tight times again. Hes just sorry theparks always seem to be in the crossfire.

The parks were established by the Legislature tobe supported by the people of the state in perpetu-ity, Clark said. People have lost sight of that goal astheir purpose. They look at them now as revenueproducers as opposed to why they exist. Its a shameto put a lot of emphasis on how much money theyare taking in. Some will never take in a lot of mon-ey.

He said there are some people in Grass Valley andNevada City that have never been out here, proofthat his best-kept secret theory is not so far offbase.

The big idea was that parks were to be supportedby everybody and not to be looked at as a luxury, hesaid. You go back to colonial days and look at a plotmap. They always had a town green.

And speaking of green, Matt Green said that greenenergy could be in North Bloomfields future.

Right now we are off the grid, he said. Ourmajor cost is diesel fuel. But they are exploring thesite to possibly put in a solar grid. We hope to oneday silence this generator.

Because of its hydraulic mining legacy and all thenegative environmental connotations that go withit, Green said the thought of green energy mighthelp change that. While it wont restore a mountain-side it could restore some faith in the fact that welearn from past mistakes.

The fact that we still have the park and have achance to keep it, its a real treasure, Griffin said.

And thats a treasure that doesnt need to becarved out of a mountainside.

Blair Pond will be the

site of the annual

kids fishing derby

on May 10.

A few families still populate North Bloomfield, though

the general store and post office shut down in 1941.

THE ODOMETER HITS 30

ON AUBURNS CRUISE NITE

BY PAUL CAMBRA


His father worked for General

Motors for 30 years, so please

excuse him if his thing for

Chevys borders on an obsession. After all, if you cant be

passionate about a 65 Malibu Super Sport 396 or, better

yet, a pile of 35 Chevy parts in the garage just waiting to

be tinkered with, whats the use?

OK, Ford and Mopar devotees may beg to differ, but you

get the point. Fan is a derivative of fanatic, and every

car has a fan, correct? And every make of car has a fan

base. Even Bond will admit theres more to life than

Chevys; just ask him what the coolest car hes seen at

Auburn Cruise Nite is.

Has to be the Gold Rush, a 1950 Mercury from

Roseville Rod and Custom, he said. Its just a really

bitchin sled; beautiful gold paint job, custom grill, leopard

print interior, its a beautiful hot rod.

This month marks the 30th anniversary of Auburns

Cruise Night, a five-times-a-year event that takes place on

the second Friday of the month from May through Sep-

tember. Its a free event that draws 300-plus classic cars

and upward of 3,000 people on the bookend dates.

Thats the beginning and the end of season for car peo-

ple, said Bond, who is serving as co-director this year.

The first Cruise Nite and the last Cruise Nite of the sea-

son, we get folks from all over the place.

Vendors and viewers alike. Theres no cost to browse

and no cost to show; just get there early enough, as space

is limited (though he cant recall ever turning a car away).

What began in 1985 in the Fosters Freeze parking lot nowtakes over Lincoln Way between Elm and High streets. The

only criteriion is that the cars are at least 1972 or older.

I like seeing cars that havent been restored, said co-

director Bob Kennedy. Some need new paint, some need

new interiors; I dont care. Ill see one in a parking lot and

Ill ask them to come. I want people to see them as they

are driven.

im Bond wasborn on theGM plan.

8/12/2019 Fhe May2014

13/37


ennedy, like Bond, has a penchantfor Chevys. He owns four: a 68Chevelle wagon, a 69 Chevellecoupe, a 68 GMC pickup and a classic55.

It was my first car, he said. Mymom gave it to me in 1965 when I was inhigh school. She was nice enough to buya classic to begin with. The popularitynever seems to have faded.

Nor has the popularity of gatheringoutside on a warm summer evening togawk and talk and reminisce.

I enjoy walking around and listeningto different conversations, Kennedysaid. They see the cars and they say Iwish I still had or their dad had Ive done the same thing. I had a 65GTO I really wish I still had.

You see, even someone who belongsto a Vintage Chevy Club can covet thecompetition.

I love Chevys but I like seeing any ofthe old cars on the road, not as trailerqueens, he said. Im not a huge fan ofpeople who restore every nut and bolt

then push it on and off the trailer. Every-body Ooohs and Aaahs, then itspushed back onto the trailer and getslocked in the garage until the nextshow.

Kennedy just took his 68 Chevellewagon to Los Angeles and back, a famil-iar road trip for folks around these parts,many of whom may have taken it in thevery same model.

Everybody gets a kick out of the wag-on; everybody had one as a kid, he said.

My wifes mother gave her some lug-gage back in the 60s that she still has.Theyre lipstick red and when we go toshows I put it them up on the luggagerack to display.

And like Bond, Kennedy steps outsidethe GM box when choosing his all-timefavorite Cruise Nite car.

Black 40 Ford Gasser, he said. It runs on alcohol. You canhear it coming a block away. It doesnt idle, it leaps.

Thankfully, people are leaping at the chance to sponsor CruiseNite. Since there is no charge to show cars and no charge to attend,the organizers pay the city for use of the street with the money

they collect from some 70 sponsors listed in their brochure. Anymoney left over at the end of the year goes to the Downtown Busi-ness Association, since they work under their insurance umbrella.

Its a good, clean family atmosphere, Kennedy said. PoliceChief (John) Ruffcorn said they have no issues with us at all. Weeven have beer for sale but we dont have any issues with people.

Also for sale will be Marias Tacos, Daves Dawgs, Auburn Barbe-cue, shave ice and kettle corn, along with all of the Downtownrestaurants to choose from.

Thats what its all about, Bond said. Getting people down-town. We get some flak from some of the businesses, but were justtrying to put on a good family event.

They are also trying to get local clubs and community groupsinvolved. The 20-30 Club, Boys and Girls Club and 49er ROP willall have a presence this year, the latter being directly involved withthe Placer High School automotive class.

We are also trying to get younger people involved, Kennedysaid, even though the cost can be astronomical sometimes torestore a car. The Civil Air Patrol Squadron 92 helps us clean upevery night. Its groups like these that we are more than happy toget behind.

Bond said they are also reaching out tothe RoaminAngels from Grass Valley, the Townsmen and Mus-tang Clubs of Sacramento, hoping to give them a clubcorner to park in. The event is gaining in popularitynot just around Auburn but well beyond. Its notuncommon to find people from Southern Californiastopping by on the way to Hot August Nights in Reno.

We are so well known now, we get a lot from theBay Area, Kennedy said. Its a destination for themnow. We are hoping it picks up for restaurants andovernight stays. Maybe they see something in thearea and decide to stay over and see it on Saturday.

They are arranging to have a feature car everynight, the first being a Bonneville from M&M Muffler,followed by Sierra Pipes dragster. In September, theyclose out the season with a 9-11 ceremony, a tradi-tion that started in 2001 after the terrorist attacks.

They werent going to have Cruise Nite in Septem-ber of 2001, Kennedy said. But the director at the

time said, We are not going to let them win, so itwent on. The first years ceremony was veryimpromptu, but weve done it every year since. Webring first responders out, and last year a gentlemanplayed taps. Normally you cant get a crowd to quitedown but you could hear a pin drop. Its very hum-bling.

This month, youre more apt to hear the sound ofrumbling motors and lively conversation. This is acar show, so no motorcycles, please. And leave Fidoat home.

Its become a social event. People areout walking their dogs so they stop byand check it out, Bond said. But wevegot to clean it up afterward and it getsreally hot out there.

Hot weather, hot cars and hot rods.What a combination. Auburn CruiseNites come a long way since 1985, when

two of the top three best selling carswere the Chevy Cavalier and the ChevyCelebrity; and the Corvette and theCamaro IROC-Z made Car & Drivers 10-best list. While none of those are eligibleto be shown at Cruise Nite, you can betthere will be a few Chevys there. Jim andBob would have it no other way.

ages and ethnicities are welcome to throw theirchefs hat into the ring and strut their saucy stuff.

We did it down in Santa Cruz and thought itwould be a great event to bring up to this area, saidTheresa McGuire, co-owner of Bear River Pasta Co.There is a lot of Italian history and businesses here.

Italians were very much involved in putting in theroads for the miners. They built a lot of structures,like the Stone House, and did a lot of masonry workduring the gold miner days.

The folks at Bear River Pasta Co. will be makingand supplying the fusilli, which McGuire said holdsthe sauce well and complements the flavor (dont letthe name fool you; her mother was Italian). Partici-pants can pre-cut some of their ingredients but thesauce two gallons worth must be made on site.

Michelle Milnermakes pasta at

Bear River Pasta Co.in Grass Valley.

Spectators can purchase tasting kits for $7 andthen cast their vote for the Peoples Choice, whilepanel of judges will decide their own winner.

I am really looking forward to it again this year,said Karen DiPillo. We had such different sauces atthe first one, some with meat, some without; it wasreally hard to choose one winner.

DiPillo and her husband, Hank, are members ofthe Nevada County Italian Cultural Foundation,which is sponsoring the event along with Bear RiverPasta. The pair was instrumental in getting the annu-al Italian Festival to become a fixture in WesternGateway Park every September. Now they turnedtheir attention to the Sunday gravy.

ts not exactly like cooking over

Mamas Wedgewood, but a propanestove under a pop-up in a parking

lot is the level playing field and fromthere, the ingredients do the talking.

We just were having a con-versation, DiPillo said. Every-body has their own idea onsauce. Hanks dad had his ownsauce. His mom was Sicilianand had her own version. Wethought, it would be great tohave a pasta sauce cook-off.

DiPillos license plate readsItalian by Marriage and shes

adopted her husbands culture.Her sauce is a combination ofwhat she learned from hermother- and father-in-law.

But its definitely my own,she said.

Last years winners were arestaurant owner from AltaSierra and a woman from PennValley who just used her familyrecipe.

Its a real family event, saidTrina Kliest, who works public-

ity for the event. We are look-ing for ordinary people whohave wonderful family recipesthat they are proud of and wantto share.

Kliest reminds us that Italiancooking varies from region toregion, even from family tofamily. People brought theserecipes with them, passedthem down through genera-tions and modified them withlocal ingredients.

This event is geared to high-light that great, Italian familycooking that we have inheritedfrom our forefathers and fore-mothers kitchens, she said.

Kliests father, though of Ger-man descent, was no strangerto spaghetti sauce, and wouldmake enough to serve 500 peo-ple at church events. His secret,she said, was fresh herbs.

Dad would go out and clip

Ask anybody about their sauceand most will claim a secretingredient and an old familyrecipe. For those without Italianancestors or in laws, theres hope.

Italian cooking teacher Giu-liano Bugialli will be in town the

two days before the cook-off toteach classes. With several books

out on the subject, Bugialli willdemonstrate the fine art of Italiancooking, which he has beenknown to say is more about phi-losophy than technique. So if youwere hoping to re-create one ofhis signature dishes on yourcamp stove come Sunday, well,you may want to rethink yourstrategy.

Now, bear in mind, most of the contents ofthose little black bags are bona fide quackerytools, once thought to be end-all cure-alls butnow looked on as oddities from a primitive era.

This violetta ray, the one that throws purplesparks, Moser said of the device with an attach-ment for just about every body orifice. It wassupposed to cure everything, you name it. Thy-roid, tonsils, eyes, hair. Sold it in the Sears catalogfor $5 so you know it had to be good.

Moser, a pediatrician with Sutter Roseville, isalso the curator of the Gold Country MedicalHistory Museum in Old Town Auburn. Open byappointment only, this ones worth a stint in thewaiting room, even if the magazines read Lifeand Look.

hat do you know, theres still a doctoraround who makes house calls. OK,theyre more like classroom calls or

senior center calls, but the point is, Dr. RodMoser will pack up his little black bags full of

medical instruments, throw them in the carand head off to his appointment.

8/12/2019 Fhe May2014

here else can you find anelectrical hemorrhoid cure

(one end plugs into a lightsocket yikes!), a foot-pumpeddental drill, a Civil War-era ampu-tation kit, surgical staples from theSpanish American War or an ivory-tipped enema kit?

Well, there are two other places youmight find them. Auburn has one ofonly three medical museums in thestate. The others are as close by asSacramento and as far away as River-side County.

And then theres Anna, the residentskeleton.

A patient of mine was looking for anEagle Scout project and I suggested hebuild a case for her, Moser said.

A plaque bears the name of KevinShaver, the industrious scout, but itwas misinterpreted by a small girl,who, Moser said, screamed, They havethe bones of a Boy Scout!

No, a simple misunderstanding, asall skeletons are definitely out of thecloset at the Gold Country MedicalMuseum. But there are a lot of itemsstill packed up, back at Mosers home.You see, hes been gathering them forquite some time.

I started collecting medical supplieswhen I was in school back in West Vir-

ginia, Moser said. When Ross Car-penter started this museum, I told him,

Have I got a gift for you.Carpenter passed away in 2011 butthe museum lives on.

He wanted it to be a document ofhistory of medicine in the area, saidhis wife, Lynn Carpenter. He wantedin particular for it to be as interesting tochildren as it was technically accuratefor adults.

During one of his eight stints as pres-ident of the Old Town Business Associ-ation (the Carpenters openedSerendipity in 1984) Ross was madeaware of two old buildings up for saleby the county. At first they thought itwas the original Placer County hospi-tal, but it merely occupies the samesite. The hospital, which was built in1855, also served as a private residence,a photography studio and Dr. Hawversdental office before being destroyed byfire in 1890, then rebuilt.

oday, the medical museum isseeking a cure for its financial

ailments. Owned by the OldTown Auburn Historical Societysince 2005, the nonprofit is look-ing to sell this and an adjoiningbuilding and rent back the space.They also need volunteers.

Dr. Rod Moserholding a vintage

pair of forceps.

Right now we are open by appoint-ment only, said Moser, who works fulltime and cannot spend every weekend

at the museum. We need 12 volunteers;each one would work once every sixweeks. That way we could keep it openon Saturdays and Sundays.

Hes also looking for patrons.If 12 people would donate $500, it

would cover expenses for a year, hesaid.

So the call is out for two dozen peoplewho can step up with their time and/ormoney and for lack of a better term resuscitate a local landmark. Eventhose who dont hold a fascination forquirky, quackery devices would beamazed at how far medicine has comein a relatively short period of time.

Lynn Carpenter recalls the words ofthe late Dr. Gordon Seck.

He told me, As late as the 1950s, wedoctors think those were medievaltimes, Carpenter said. They didnteven know how to identify or diagnose aheart attack. The progress has been out-standing.

In addition to the classrooms that Dr.Moser visits (they love the Little DoctorKits and the 12-inch hypodermic), hesalso dropped in at an assisted-livingfacility recently.

I had to bring things that were at

least 100 years old because some ofthem are in their 90s, Moser said. Thestories they came up with. They remem-ber the medicine and the diseases thatare now rare. Every time we open peoplecome by with stories. And they donateartifacts. The collection still continues togrow.

It seems everyone has a medical storybut Ill bet few have seen packages ofcocaine toothache drops and coughlozenges, or heroin in a bottle, or onethat reads: Got asthma? Try opium. No,those can only be found among the vin-tage vaporizers, bottles and bedpansthat populate the premises at 219 MapleSt. You probably thought you needed atrepanning tool like you needed a holein your head, but thats exactly what itdrills.

The Gold Country Medical Museum:.Its the perfect prescription for the curi-ous and just the remedy for those whothink theyve seen it all.

About Sierra Weight LossAt Sierra Weight Loss in Grass Valley, we treat obesity as a

chronic disease of abnormal energy storage and not a lack ofwillpower. Patients understand that even if they lose weight, theywill always be an obese person in a thinner body and at risk forregain.

One of the first principles participants learn is that weight loss isnot the cure for obesity. Effective lifetime weight managementrequires absorbing new concepts of nutrition, activity and conflict-resolution, then utilizing a new battery of problem-solving skills toimplement and shape new behaviors.

Because most commercial diet centers only focus on the diet, theyprovide some combination of products special foods,supplements, lectures and so on. Few, if any, actually offer a programthat identifies and changes the behaviors that contribute to yourbeing overweight in the first place. Our programs will help youovercome the avoidance and denial that have made and kept youoverweight. While youre losing weight youll receive professionalhelp and be held accountable for your actions. Clinical studies haveshown that accountability and behavioral counseling are effectivetools in weight loss and they are the cornerstone of Sierra Weight

Losss program.After reaching goal weight, our aftercare program, known asCompass, allows individuals to practice weight management skillswith support, guidance and accountability, which includes newchallenges like adapting activity to the weather or the complexsituations that tend to occur around food during the holidays,vacations and social events. Data from Sierra Weight Loss follow-up studies show that the most successful long-term maintainers oflower weight bodiescomplete a

minimum of 12-18months in Compassbefore reducing thefrequency of theirweekly contact.Over 80% of thosepatients who stickwith the entireprogram aresuccessful inavoiding regainlong-term.

The weightmanagementprograms at Sierra

Weight Loss are designed to help you reduce obesity risk factors(the elements in your lifestyle which endanger your health), and

help you improve your chances to live a long and healthful lifethrough lifetime weight management.Some of our weight maintenance tips:

1. Dont Use Food to Stabilize Your Moods2. Keep a Well-stocked Pantry and Set Grocery Shopping List3. Dont Eat in the Car4. Use Smaller Plates, Utensils, Tall, Skinny Glasses5. Only Eat What You Bring to Work

6. Eat a Small Snack Prior to Any Social Outing RevolvingAround Food7. If Eating Alone is a Trigger DONT!8. Track Your Alcohol Consumptiona 4 oz. glass of dessert
