On those summer days, one of my favorite walks was to stroll down "Cannery Row," which was once the site of several now-defunct sardine canneries. The last one had closed in 1973, a year before I arrived.
The name of the main street was officially established in January 1958 in honor of local writer John Steinbeck and his 1945 novel "Cannery Row." In the opening sentence, John described the street with these words:
«Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream».

I'm not real sure if they all do this now, but my Eye doctor offered me a short clip of the procedure he performed on me about a week ago.
Also there was a bit of confusion with the Steroid calculations & I ran into a bit of a glitch. Seema as though I was afflicted with something affecting less that 3% of patients - Semi-temporary X-Ray vision. I found that out with an 'incident' only a couple days ago.
So, I've been banned from all girls' Sporting events until the Ophthalmologist can get back in to disable it. A little over 2 more weeks of treatment, but I'm slowly & gradually getting there.
