I love to learn history and geography and you are so good at telling the background for what you are visiting. Thank you--the history behind those motels and hotels is fascinating. Just imagine--Chinese immigrants and underground passages! There's a novel in that! Peace.

I have tried to comment on your blog, Rosemary, but it won't let me. It says something about members only. I signed up by email to receive messages of new posts, but it still won't let me comment. Just wanted to let you know I tried!
