We are touring all around the area (delta). There are “draw” bridges and ferries connecting the various levee roads of the Delta. The bridges come in a number of versions – real draw bridges with counterweights, “lift” bridges that raised a section of bridge, and the most interesting one is the “turn” bridge which rotates 90 degrees. Most of these bridges were built in the early 40’s which makes them about a little older than us. We plan on coming back again for 2 weeks so that we can continue the Delta tour and the get into Sacramento some, too.
There is also Locke - that reflects the remains of the Chinese laborers community. We only had time to check out the food at "Al the Wops" - really that's the name of the place. According to local lore, Al saved one of the Chinese's life and the grateful family gave him their resturant.
There are lots of road side produce stands: avocados –yummy, strawberries – soft and sweet, and our favorite – asparagus. So, Boots has a lot of kitchen time to prepare these riches of the earth.
