I guess a little more commentary would be good, the lake is Clearlake its one of the oldest natural lakes in North America it takes an hour to drive around the whole lake.Mt Konocti actually has a underground lake below that is connected to Clearlake and yes it is a Volcano at rest. at the base of Konocti they have an excellent outdoor concert area...lot of big name venues. I am located 1 hour 45 minutes northeast of Sacramento....bring a boat and a bike!

Hey I use to live on that street! Do hey still call it the Strand? or 14th St? I lived there in a mobile home way back in high school with my girlfriend, circa 1988.... IIRC, that road was originally used as a runway for that castle. very cool. Its been a long while since I been up to the lake.

 

[Gold Street Customs]

Wow small world, Yeah its actually 13th street but they still call it the strand....alot has changed and alot hasn't they have been slowly taking out the old trailers and trying to upgrade but they have been putting parks along hwy 20 trying to make it a little nicer. But the lake sucks right now so much hydrilla clogging up everything it isn't good to swim in, hopefully they can figure something out.

Funny, all this time I've been seeing your username, I was thinking "Lucerne Valley" - but that's in the middle of the desert in SoCal, and looks NOTHING like that! Very nice!

 

[old school 64]

Ok...NOW the light comes on..wasn't getting it where you were from..but I know Clearlake !!!

 

[Gold Street Customs]

I figure I would update since I first posted, with the econimy the way it is they had to shut down Konocti resort, it was one of the most beautiful concert venues in Nor Cal, put 800 people out of work, and the way the rain has been the lake is full and the water is gorgeous now. They are talking about installing more bike paths in the area, I will post more when something materializes.
