391 WAYITWAS-2008-815 eng Goerke-Shrode, Sabine Walnut orchards part of Solano since 1930s 2008-01-20 One of my fond memories of growing up in Germany includes spending dark winter nights with my family, reading to each other while sharing a special treat - a bowl of California walnuts. My brother and I would try to shell the nuts so that the two halves of the shells remained undamaged. These half shells eventually would be used to fashion little boats, baskets, figurines and other crafts. vacahc@gmail.com 815 00099802378 Publication/Article CaVaHC http://www.solanoarticles.com/history/index.php/vhcdb/815/ Read Article http://www.solanohistory.net/articles/815/815.1.pdf PDF Document
