For a short time, she too worked at a diner out on the Pacific Coast Highway in a spit of a town called Gorda. Her attention was caught less than a year later by a dashing sailor, my father. It was fun calling mom after reading this and listening to her stories of the past. Considering the fact that I haven't celebrated Father's Day since my dad passed away in 1994, this was a lovely way to think of him. Thank you.

What a wonderful time and place to be a part of. I myself have spent more than a few very late nights in places such as Mallory's diner. The waitress probably thought I was "ancient and grim". I spent 4 hours the other night sifting through everything on this web site. I am not sure what to make of it really. However, I am intrigued. Southern California in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
