Fly away, butterfly
Today I sprouted awesome butterfly wings.
Just kidding! But these Pepperidge Farm Golden Butter crackers sure were awesome!

Fabulous Folsom Part V
I enjoyed some time by Lake Natoma.
Then I headed back through the park.
And went across the street! Wowie, there were lots of cars. Good thing I didn't get run over.
Green and yellow -- my favorite colors! What's your favorite color?
I trekked across the Folsom historic truss bridge, which was originally dedicated in 1893. See that white sign attached to the bridge in the picture above? Apparently back in the day there was a $25 fine for driving more than 20 horses, 50 cows, or 200 sheep, pigs or goats over the bridge at one time.
I had an awesome time in Folsom!

Fabulous Folsom Part IV
After admiring the awesome tools in the machine shop, I went strolling through the grounds.
Awesome green grass and awesome green weeds! I sure do love the color green.
Walking down the trail...
...to the awesome grinding rock! The holes were filled with water; they were like swimming pools to a little man. The grinding rock is where Native Americans prepared their awesome acorn meal.
I then hiked down to the river; this part of the American River is called Lake Natoma. There were lots of birds nearby, including mallards, seagulls, Canadian geese, and an American coot. Cool!

Fabulous Folsom Part III
When the Folsom Powerhouse was in operation, water from the river entered large pipes. These pipes were called penstocks and had been built in Pennsylvania.
The water rushed through the pipes, falling nearly 60 feet to the turbines.
As the water flowed through the turbines, the shafts of the generators spun, creating electricity.
Hydroelectric power is totally awesome.
I sat on the stone wall outside before heading to the machine shop.
What an awesome START button; it's the same color as my cool green shirt! Do you have any cool green shirts?

Fabulous Folsom Part II
Inside the Folsom Powerhouse was the awesome, huge machinery:
And a small hands-on display:
My big friend rapidly turned the crank handle and the spiffy lights lit up.

Fabulous Folsom Part I
My big friends and I went to Folsom Powerhouse State Historic Park.
We scrounged up five dollars worth of coins for the parking fee since none of us had any one- or five-dollar bills.
The powerhouse utilized water power from the awesome American River to produce electricity.
It operated from 1895 to 1952 and provided electricity for Sacramento, which previously had relied soley on steam power for its electricity.
The guest book.
One of my big friends signed me in since the pen was so big for me. But she forgot the exclamation mark at the end of "It rocks" so I added that myself. Awesome!

ABC = Awesome Belgian Chocolates
Guylian Belgian chocolates are awesome.
The delicious filling is made with chocolate and hazelnuts.
And look at the awesome shapes!
A shrimp-like creature. Quite heavy for a little man to hold. Oof.
And a seahorse.
See the twinkle in my black eye? The chocolates are that good!

To infinity and beyond
I can hold the moon...
...and the stars...
...all in my mighty green little man hands!
And yes, indeed, the moon is made with cheese!
Wahoooo! Tumbling through space (shapes). Oh, and fish.
They were quite tasty and awesome!

A grand day out Part III
I visited the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
And the Civil War Memorial.
It would be totally awesome if big people learned how to get along.
Sitting on a bench with fallen camellias.
And sitting on the awesome seal of California. California rocks!
