Thank you kindly for the link
I grew up in Benicia and lived in Vallejo for 15 years. The last 5 on Sandy Beach on the dock of the bay. Here's a pic of me taken at #9 Sandy Beach Rd. during that time. Note the jetty at the end of the Napa river behind me on Mare Island. I think you can see the old torpedo magazines behind me to the right.
