It’s Chester’s Big Day

Lover’s Lane, near Chester, circa, 1914–Hazel York Moller

When I penned this, it was before the Covid 19 pandemic. Normally, Chester’s Fourth of July parade draws big crowds, making it the largest community in Plumas County. This year’s festivities have been cancelled.

Today’s photograph, however, back in the day, never witnessed a whole lot of folks at once. The postcard given to my by the late Hazel York Moller was taken circa 1914. Where Chester’s Lovers Lane was back then is up to speculation, and whether Chester has a Lovers Lane in 2020, I do not know that either. Its a big holiday weekend, so enjoy, but be careful at the same time.
