While the East Coast of the U.S. experiences frigid temperatures and some frightening weather event called a 'bomb cyclone', we in the Bay Area, have been experiencing relatively mild temperatures.
This was not always the case, however. For this Photo Friday we delve back to photos taken almost exactly 105 years ago, on January 9, 1913.
On that day the crews constructing the first Calaveras Dam found their work site covered in snow.
The site was so remote back then that the crews lived on site. Here is the watershed keeper's house and another worker's cabin.
Shown here is a barn, corral, and nearby cottage.
It might be foggy out there today, but at least it isn't snowing!
Happy long weekend and see you around the Valley!
