One of the reasons that Chris and Connie wanted to meet in Big Valley was that the Non-Profit Society that looks after the Train Station was having an open house. Chris and Connie knew many of the members, and had worked with them in the past. They even stayed in the station in the past.
After we finished our lunch at the Big Valley Inn we walked across the street to the station. It is fully restored and includes a lot of historic information and artifacts. It was pretty neat to see, but not really something that I was interested in shooting with my big camera. I generally prefer old stuff to be deteriorated and preferably abandoned, and not restored to original status. All the same, I really enjoyed the visit, and the history of the old place, as it was explained to us, was fascinating.
By mid-afternoon we wrapped things up and headed on our way to our next destination.
