Driving down Business 80 in Sacramento and I could not help but notice that the Sacramento Inn (Formerly the Red Lion) where coin shows used to be held semi-annually, WAS GONE!
No buildings, no swimming pools, no nothing! Just Concrete slabs where building used to be!
Anybody know what happened?
I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
The name is LEE!

Bummer. I lived in the neighborhood behind that Inn (Swanston Estates) when it was being built in 1960. We used to steal swims in the main pool after the construction crews went home.
Looking it up, it must have been 1954.

Yep... sad when things like that happen..... Happened to me two years ago... was driving down the street where I spent many of my youthful years growing up... and passing my old house - - - It was gone...just a vacant lot there..... Wow... kind of a shock. Cheers, RickO
