Swung by the Rancho Seco Nuclear Generating Station on my way home from camping

the Nuclear plant is now decommissioned but is now a solar farm called Rancho Seco Solar II, I really wanted to see those cooling towers

Some years the hiking trails have great wildflower blooms. Did you see any in your visit?

I mean the Rancho Seco site specifically! But I’m glad you saw them nearby.
