Greetings from The Date Empire (California)
Unused “local” card 54964-2 (FS-197) explaining some things about the Coachella Valley and Palm Springs. Allow us a small digression. Way back in the Dark Ages, on rare trips through the Southern California desert, we would see roadside stands selling date shakes. This was soooooooo exotic and in that heat they were soooooooo good. Maybe those stands or their successors are still there, but we aren’t. A chicken feet milkshake just isn’t the same. Grade: 1
