*On the Sunday, February 5th, 2012 edition of The Travel Guys…*

This week's episode of The Travel Guys gives you some great ideas on things to do right here in northern California. [Calaveras County](http://www.gocalaveras.com/)is just a short drive from Sacramento, in the Sierra foothills. Known internationally for the annual [Jumping Frog Jubilee](http://www.frogtown.org/), there's way more in Calaveras than just frogs. From the quaint town of Murphy's to the Sequoia Trees in [Calaveras Big Trees State Park](http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=551)[![tumblr-lrz1i1dlsp1qz7tiao1-1280-600x600.jpg](https://travelguysradio.com/sites/default/files/2012/02/tumblr-lrz1i1dlsp1qz7tiao1-1280-600x600.jpg)](https://travelguysradio.com/sites/default/files/2012/02/tumblr-lrz1i1dlsp1qz7tiao1-1280-600x600.jpg)Speaking of adventures, did you know there's a [wildlife park at Point Arena](http://www.bbryanpreserve.com/)where you can tour or even spend the night? You won't want to miss this fascinating interview. Mark has the travel news, including a [story about a cat loose on a plane](http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/story/2012/01/25/ns-loose-cat-plane.html), and there's always something different,, entertaining and interesting found on the show.
