ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Arriving in Modesto, CA was exciting! I started with a donut and coffee and Mr.T's Delicate Donuts, which was excellent. I then headed downtown and explored the cruising history of Modesto, a town the movie American Graffiti was based upon. The usual landmarks were lovely, and included the McHenry Museum and McHenry Mansion.

About Modesto: Modesto is located in the Central Valley, 68 miles (109 km) south of Sacramento and 90 miles (140 km) north of Fresno. Distances from other places include: 40 miles (64 km) north of Merced, California, 92 miles (148 km) east of San Francisco, 66 miles (106 km) west of Yosemite National Park, and 24 miles (39 km) south of Stockton.

The city is surrounded by rich farmland. Stanislaus County ranks sixth among California counties in farm production.[10] It is home to Gallo Family Winery, the largest family-owned winery in the United States.[11] Led by milk, almonds, chickens, walnuts, and corn silage, the county grossed nearly $3.1 billion in agricultural production in 2011. The farm-to-table movement plays a central role in Modesto living as in the Central Valley. #modesto #travel #rosieokelly
