Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching. All this and more from a gay liberal atheist living in California’s Bible belt. I recently married, so MAGA beware! I’m your worst nightmare! Some names have been omitted to protect the innocent, but the guilty will be hung out to dry!

A little taste of Visalia

A little taste of historic Visalia. Taylor Brother’s Hot Dog stand, at Center and Encina in downtown Visalia. For years located across the street to the west, the stand was moved and expanded (yes, expanded!) on this lot some years ago. You can get hot dogs here. Chili on them if you like. Soft drinks and chips. That’s about the extent of the menu, and always has been. Like I told someone today, it’s not gourmet, and you can certainly find better quality ‘dogs elsewhere, but this it Taylor’s, and it’s a Visalia institution and tradition, so we cut it a lot of slack. I can take up to two at a time, and find that a visit every year or two is sufficient for my needs. Others make it a family occasion, and the lines at times stretch well into the parking lot. Give them a try. Don’t worry about telling them JimmieJoe sent you, they won’t know who I am! 😉
