A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of driving the senior group at my church to the Pacific Orchid Exposition at Fort Mason in San Francisco. It's not often that I get to use my California Commercial Class B license, so this was exciting for me for two reasons. 1) I Get to challenge myself at driving...

When you think of Modesto, California - what comes to mind? Nuts? Maybe - Modesto is a very large supplier of nuts - The Blue Diamond Almond Factory is there and the local Minor League baseball team is called the Modesto Nuts.
