Nimbus Hatchery
We went to the Nimbus Hatchery today at Racho Cordova. We didn't really plan on going but Trent decided to use a different route on our way home. We did some errands in South Sacramento and traffic was building up on the other side.
I've only been to the hatchery once and it was freezing cold then. I think it was back in 1999 so I was kinda excited to see the little fishies. I wanted to see how Aden would react now that he's at the age where he's amazed at anything you point specially animals - his favorite is the bird. To our dismay, they close at 2:30pm and we got there at 3pm. Arrgh!!! We still went to the ladder where the salmons swim against the tide but it was empty. I think spawning season is around fall towards winter. We still went anyway.
Here's Aden in his carseat

Behind us is the American River
Here's the salmon ladder I'm talkin' about.
I think that's Hazel Avenue behind us. I'm sure that's not the freeway.
