Greetings from little California down the river! Isn't much changed and that opinion probably works even if you haven't been there for twenty years.
Guess a used car lot is going in where the feed store was so that's a plus. The beer distributor is for sale, Paul's Body Shop sold out and is now a storage place, the old tire shop's still open. Coal train's still run through, swear they know when I need to get across the bridge as their timing is amazing.
The town still suffers from being connected to Brownsville, at least via the school system. That makes real estate a tough sell unlike Blainesburg which is connected to the California district.
The big hope is the Wal-Mart coming into the area on the hill, off four-lane route 40. That would change things quite nicely. But to do that, all the river towns on that side have to get an agreement on water and sewage and that's moving as fast as maple syrup on a South Pole morning.
That's it, check back in twenty years or so for an update.
