In my previous post, I mentioned the once ubiquitous (& still very common) pear orchards in this area. After gold was discovered, many Chinese came to California, and an early settlement of Chinese happened here, in the town of Locke, to work in the pear canning factory that was set up here next to the river.
Robin says she and her father came here many years ago and encountered a number of Chinese still living here, descended from the original settlers. Notice the sign just above "Gambling House"--apparently, Locke was one of those places where Anglos from San Francisco would come for "vices." I love the fact I got two American flags in this picture, because, after all, gambling (and vice in general) is as American as baseball and apple pie.
The previous two shots are the Japanese-settled town of Walnut Grove, practically next door to Locke.
Thank you, your article is very good
