Fresno, CA and the surrounding area

Just did a quick drive around this morning ..... planning on King's Canyon and Yosemite after the holiday.

In Clovis, CA, Festus from Gunsmoke is staring at you ... there is a fenced statue bearing the likeness of Festus dedicated to the actor who played him, Ken Curtis.

Located in Caruthers, California is a gas station with something peculiar atop its roof. If you're traveling along Highway 41, you can't help but stop and notice this WWII-era fighter jet, nose-down into the station's pump island.

For a town that refers to itself as "Swedish Town," this water tower is right up its alley. Located between Bakersfield and Fresno, Kingsburg's water tower is uniquely shaped like a coffee kettle, complete with a colorful, Swedish-like design and handle.
After running some errands and returning to the campground, there was the Sunday afternoon ice cream gathering and I learned to play Hand and Foot, a card game.
