Coalinga Junction Arco, Coalinga, Fresno County, California

A vital rest, refueling, and transportation hub for long haul drivers along the I-5.

It's not even in the little town of Coalinga. It's along a lonely and barren stretch of the 5, a few miles north of town.

I don't know how many countless times I've seen the gas gage dip down, or felt so sleepy like I needed to get a motel, where I just told myself over and over "All you have to do is get to Coalinga."

Significant numbers of large cats, elephants, boars and small mammals live here, and it's been identified as an Important Bird Area.

Nuevo California.

Where I first listened to full Rolling Stones and Beatles albums on my own.

I remember recording Beatles albums to cassette, in the front room of my uncle and aunt’s terrace house in South Ealing. This was in the early seventies. We recorded them by putting a microphone in front of the speakers and piling cushions around it. The albums were mono sound. I think I still have those cassettes somewhere here.

The albums were mono sound. I think I still have those cassettes somewhere here.

Do you have a player for if you wanted to hear them?

The last time that I used cassettes was as a patient in a psych hospital back in 2011. I listened to music and to lectures on a portable player. Whoever let my mother give it to me mustn't have realized that it had a recording feature, which made it contraband (or they looked the other way). When walking in the hall with it, I would keep a finger covering that red button, so that no one should notice it.
