My mom was orphaned as a two year old in 1931. She lived in a series of orphanages growing up, and her fondest memories were of a Catholic orphanage run by nuns in Illinois. They were so sweet to her that she thought of going into the convent (though she was a Protestant). The sisters didn’t think she had a true vocation however, but she did become a Catholic. In her thirties she went back to visit the sisters and I have a picture of her standing with them, in front of a building very similar to that one. Because of that background, I look at places like that with a great deal of affection. The children weren’t mistreated Jeff. It’s only in the movies that orphanages are terrible places. It’s not a workhouse out of Dickens. They taught her French and German and shorthand, and she was able to get a job as a newspaper reporter. Without places like that, my mom used to say, she would’ve ended up as a “working girl.”

Going back to the 1960s my stepdad always made sure during the summer that we visited as many missions, old gold rush towns etc. So many of your videos bring me back to my childhood.

Thanks for an amazing video as always! :) After reading the comments I wasn’t sure what to expect….but I LOVE the ending song! Especially how you slowed down the footage of you and Sarah….just very unique, but actually fit the song. Thanks again and just ignore the haters!

What an amazing town. Such rich history. Great video. Once again, I must say, you have the perfect voice for doing these stories. If you had a radio show, I would keep it on all the time because your voice is so relaxing. 😃 Great work!

Wow, thank you! I’ve been told that before which is hard to believe because I never liked my voice growing up! I appreciate your kindness, Cheryl!

Very interesting look at Grass Valley. I have been all over California, but never there. I had a mental image of a sleepy little wide spot in the road, it is so much more then that! Thanks Jeff and Sarah for the tour!
