We are super psyched to share this 5 minute video short produced by avid California traveler and blogger, Josh at California Through My Lens. Shot during his first visit to our area, he beautifully highlights eight of his family’s favorite things to do in Lake County. Way cool!

Mark your calendar and join in the celebration as Lake County Historical Society/Ely Stage Stop & Country Museum commemorates its 10th anniversary on Saturday, July 17, from 10am-3pm. This free, family-friendly event will be a journey back featuring historical displays honoring local agriculture, demonstrations (including black-smithing!), horse & wagons, and a ceremony honoring the pioneers that made the museum a reality. Fun for all-ages! (Located at 9921 Soda Bay Road in Kelseyville.) photos by Karen Pavone Photography

It’s official! Summer is here. Beat the heat and cool off in the shimmering waters of Blue Lakes. These deep, spring fed lakes off Highway 20 are the perfect spot to paddle the day away, swim, float, and tan to your heart’s content. See you out there! #bluelakesca #lakecountyca #clearlydifferent

It’s Juneteenth! Celebrate with live music and authentic African cuisine today at Middletown Art Center.

Just you and the lake. Motoring into sunset. The wind whipping your hair. The sun on your face. An Osprey soaring lazily overhead as you watch the sky turn orange, then pink, then hues of deep purple on the horizon. And you think, so THIS is what heaven on Earth looks like! by @karenpavonephotography #lakecountyca #clearlydifferent #clearlakeca #alldreamswelcome #visitcalifornia

Why go to the sea, said the Lake, when you can find peace and take flight on my shore? #clearlydifferent #clearlakeca
