H IGH W ATERMARK In the spring heavy rains saturate the Sierras and send water downstream to <strong>Sacramento</strong>. Levees and proper water management have lessened the threats of severe flooding over the years. T OWER B RIDGE AT D USK Tower Bridge was the first vertical lift bridge in the state of California, and originally had train tracks that crossed it as well. When lifted, the span weighs an impressive 1,040 tons and has counterweights that weigh the same - it is easily raised with two 100-horsepower engines.

G OVERNOR’ S M ANSION Official home to the Governor of California, this mansion is a California State Park but inaccessible to visitors due to it’s working nature. <strong>The</strong> 30 room building was constructed in the style of Second Empire- Italiante Victorian in 1877 for Albert Gallatin, who was a successful hardware merchant at the time. It wasn’t until 1903 that the State of California purchased the residence and made it the official home to the Governor of California. CHAPTER TWO 51
