  1. We almost never go to diners.The last time was in 2019 with people we met on a cruise who live in my part of NY.We were three couples.The experience was awful,not the food ,the waiter and the Manager were very rude.

I have been to California several times.The first time was In 1970 when I was young and healthy.My wife and I did an alcohol tasting tour of the many wineries.At each one there were 2 ounce cups but there was no limit .The second time we did that tour was 1999,still healthy but not young and I could not drink as much as the first time.

The first time I went to a McDonalds was probably in the 70’s.The only fast food burger restaurant in my part of NY was White Castle .In 1962 something else opened but I do not remember what it was.
