Yesterday we caught up with long-time friends and forum members Robert and Carol Penn. With their movements between their TX and CA homes, and our movements between our CA and OH homes, we're often like ships that pass in the night. We relish these rare occasions to be in the same place at the same time and get caught up. This lunch was at Al The Wop's in the historic Chinese community of Locke, on the Sacramento River. Reminiscing about RV trips and boating on the Delta.
Locke was home to Chinese laborers who built the railroads and built the CA Delta levees, until the clamshell dredge was brought in.
The ceiling inside Al's is covered with $1 bills thrown up there with large tacks. One of them is mine from 20+ years ago.
