My West Coast Trip
By Billy Payne
While visiting in Yuba City with our relatives, I decided to rest while the othere went to Donna Summit, Donna Lake and Lake Tahoe, then across the Nevada line to North Shore. Saturday Mon, Dad and I left Grandma Latham and Nancy in Yuba City and we headed for Oakland to visit more cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Art Smiley and son Bob. We were fortunate to have relatives to show us around San Francisco We took a ride on a cable car and walked through Chinatown, then went to Telegraph Hill where we looked out over the city. We crossed the Golden Gate Bridge and drove through the Golden Gate Park which was very pretty. Sunday we visited another cousin in Campbell, Calif., Mr. and Mrs. Craig Howard, and went to Santa Cruz, which is California’s Virginia Beach We left California Monday morning for Los Angeles and got there just in time for the afternoon traffic jam on the freeway. After finding a motel, we went to Disneyland where we had loads of fun. The most exciting ride at the amusement park was a bobsled through the Matterhorn, around curves, up and down the hills, screaming, yelling all kinds of noise. Boy, it was terrific. In fact the park was so much fun we spent half of the night. The next day we went to the Movieland Wax Museum and then on to San Diego. After lunch we crossed the border into Tijuana, Mexico. Here we bought souvenirs, and then started on our way. By the way, have you ever heard of Cutamonga, Calif.? Well, we went there by mistake. Today we have been driving through the Mojave Desert, and it was hot as blazes. Temperature was 111 degrees at 5 p.m.
