Thank you for dropping a line, Tod! I think many falconry parents had to endure some strange things from our childhood. I can’t believe my grandparent put up with all they did!

Now I’m going to have to walk up the street (yes, it’s up the street) and look for the headstones from you family. It really is a beautiful cementary. And the internet surely does make the world a very small place.

Paul’s Dad here: The chickens always go home to roost…Cathedral City, CA…Not too far from Banning…Paul has forgotten, but he also has a GREAT grandmother buried up in that (now) beautiful cemetery…

Don’t know if Paul wrote another reply to your blog, but he’s also a falconer. Started as a young sprout…Raised mice and rats to feed to barn owls, and Red Tailed hawk… The bait animals broke out and invaded the neighborhood… (This in Northern CA – Danville)

I write for my own amazement…Getting a little creaky, but still able to play a round of golf…

You mean everyone doesn’t know where Banning is?

Thanks for sharing. I love that this place has so much history!

Banning. No one lives in Banning! Both
of my parents grew up in Banning. Both
of my Grandfathers died there. One is
Buried up in that beautiful cemetery
up the hill. We buried my grandmother
there next to him almost 40 years later.
My grandfather was a Dr. who had his office
on the second floor. His headstone says.
Addis Langston
Office upstairs.
That was my Fathers idea. Smart guy my dad.
I never met him. He died 5 years before I was
born. A little banning trivia….
