Hitting the older neighborhood bars, having a drink, shooting some pool, taking some pictures, learning some history.

We decided to visit some of California’s oldest bars and then expanded that scope to include any older, interesting dive we could find.

These are the dives of our lives.

These are not meant to be reviews, just tracking, noting, documenting, for our own knowledge as much as anything else.

We’ve been to many dives already in our lives. This is the first of our documenting them.

It’s a journey.
