Great new store, where you can buy gifts that say "Sonora". A great selection of multiple gifts. I love the T-Shirts and bought a Sweat Shirt that I proudly wear that say's "Sonora". Plan a visit, you will love this location and shop.

My daughter suggested this restaurant and wow was I impressed, the flavors were out of this world. During lunch a buffet was offered and this allowed to try multiple foods at once. I look forward to my return. My daughter made a great suggestion.

If your downtown, near the courthouse, you may see a building that says Jury Assembly Room, go up the stairs and walk to the end of the hallway. A new Sonora oasis, if you like a variety of Cupcakes, and other baked items. New on the menu is Pizza. delicious.

Sure enjoyed my time today with the 1st graders, reading to them, going over
the words that they know or the words where they need practice. I liked their energy.
I will volunteer once a week, its nice to walk in another persons shoes, and the primary grade school teacher was a true dedicated educator.

Picked up a screw in my tire, walked in and within minutes, tire was removed, a plug was placed where I had picked up the screw and within ten minutes back on the road. Outstanding service. I will return for both repairs and new tires.

    Today I took Amtrak from Modesto to Jack London Square in Oakland. Once again , I was very satisfied. $19.00 each way and i made the round trip, conducting business in Oakland, I was able to work off my laptop, no driving and even took a nap on the return trip. My next trip will include a weekend and I plan on taking my bike.

    Took another trip from Modesto to Martinez. Fresh coffee a morning newspaper, views of the delta and Mt. Diablo, no traffic, no gas, read most of the way. $8:00 each way. It does not get any better than that and the train continued on to Jack London Square in Oakland.

    Being a big fan of public transportation, Amtrak was my first choice to  travel. A simple drive from Sonora to the newer Amtrak station in Modesto as my destination was Long Beach for a Crawdad festival.

    Booking a reservation was simple at http://www.Amtrak..., I applied a  10% AAA  discount and made on-line reservations. Under $53.00 each way

    Parked my car in the shade and could not believe when the train arrived on schedule and a pleasant 3 hour drive to Bakersfield.

    The sites and communities in between, our rich agricultural heritage were on display.

    No driving, no gas, no stress.  Within minutes at Bakersfield the Amtrak Bus whisked off to each of our final destinations and mine was the Queen Mary in Long Beach.

    The return was equal leaving downtown Long Beach at 9:30 am and arriving in Modesto at 5:00pm

    The San Joaquin to the South serves Merced, Fresno and Bakersfield and Southern California and to the North Stockton, Sacramento, Oakland & San Francisco.

    Going north or South, Amtrak Modesto is the way to go.
