Timbuctoo in Smartsville, California

February 8, 2021

Founded in 1855, at one time this was the most populated town in eastern Yuba County. The lure of gold led to its popularity, and like most gold rush settlements, the town included saloons, a Wells Fargo, a theater, and even a church. Located along the banks of the Yuba River, the name Timbuctoo is believed to have...

Ali’iolani Hale in Honolulu, Hawaii

In Other Election News, Massachusetts Just Voted...

February 5, 2021

While much of America rehashes the outcome and aftermath of a recent election, voters in Massachusetts have been electing another official. The job description is vague, the duties negligible.
