Last day in Mariposa, California

before driving onward to the coast,

we opt again for swimming in the wild and scenic Merced River.

Upon returning to the ranch we have our unsinkable reminder:

The town has faith in its firefighters…

The ranchers inform us of a concert in a local park in town,

so we catch a dinner and then the show.

After the park, we went for a night walk sightseeing the shopfronts of Mariposa

before returning back to the ranch for the evening…

This next few images were taken the next day, 8-9-2008,

but there weren’t any other pictures,

so they’re included here.

A meeting of the minds over rope tug-o-war.
