Giant Orange squeezed slice of Americana / Bowen, Jerry [562] [WAYITWAS-2005-562]
I just had to run over to Dixon the other day. I wanted to see if the George's Giant Orange booth still existed. I took the Dixon Exit from Interstate 80 and, yep, there it was and it was in great shape.

Pioneer settler wanted land, not gold / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [136] [WAYITWAS-2002-136]
Though he was born in Orange County, Va., on May 30, 1808, he grew up in Kentucky. Like many young frontier men, he felt the urge to move further west. The year 1830 found him as a farmer in New London, Miss., where he married Cornelia Catherine Lamme, a great-granddaughter of Daniel Boone, on Jan. 19, 1830.

Some communities only existed on paper / Bowen, Jerry [27] [WAYITWAS-2000-27]
Over the last 150 years, towns and small communities have come and gone. Some only existed on paper and never got off the ground. There were many reasons for the rise and fall of these communities, including war, railroad and highway placement and changing industry, among others.

Faded Evidence of Former Winery Exists / Bowen, Jerry [684] [WAYITWAS-2006-684]
I briefly mentioned an early stone building on a small separate seven and one-half acre parcel of land belonging to Samuel Martin who built the Stonedene mansion in 1861 in my last article. I also speculated in previous chapters of this article this was also the actual site of the Santa Eulalia Mission and that one of Indians in charge of the rancheria/mission was Chief Solano and that it was here that he returned to live out his final days.
