The Sun Rises in the West

One of the moments that I sincerely appreciate living only four blocks from the Pacific Ocean–viewing the stunning sunrise off of Ocean Blvd in Long Beach.  I can’t think of a better way to start the day!!

Locke, California

November 27th, 2006 8 Comments

Locke, California is the only town in the US built exclusively by the Chinese for the Chinese and remains the last standing rural Chinatown in the United States. Situated in the southern agricultural region of Sacramento County, it is a true gem of a town, rich in cultural heritage, and rightfully belongs to the National Register of Historic Places. Here are some pics from our quick stop in Locke while on the way home from Thanksgiving in Sacramento:

In Isleton, California, birthplace of Pat Morita aka Mr. Miyagi from the movie Karate Kid, birds of a feather really do flock together! This was a great find while driving through the Sacramento River delta region. See if you can count how many there are! ;)
