Most of today's drive was in good weather and just normal traffic. No tie ups even around Sacremento. We were really looking forward to getting to Williams to have lunch at an old haunt of ours, Granzella's Restaurant and Deli. It started to rain cats and dogs just as we arrived so it was great to sit by the fire. Wonderful lunch and picked up some wine and deli stuff to go along with the cheese we brought from PS to have for dinner tonight in our room. We won't feel like dining out tonight. Quite rainstorm from Williams to Redding. They really need it in this area but a bit of a shock to the system.
We are actually in Red Bluff. The Holiday Inn Express we have stayed in around Redding doesn't seem to around anymore. This is a particularly nice one but we do hear the train….ah well, we'll pretend we're in Europe. Often hard to avoid the sound of trains on the road there.
A few scenes from Granzella's
Lots of goodies of all kinds.
Our table was right by the fire.
And we looked at this cool poster from Siena…one of our favourite places in the world.
200 bottled beers from all over the world available.
Now in Spain, these hams would be hung from the rafters without any covering.
These pickles looked great but I don't want to deal with glass and we're pretty packed full.
One of the Fat Ladies loved capers….she would have bought this for sure!
Back to reality….sigh….
