Lodi Walldogs
Lodi is a city of roughly 70,000 in the northern part of California’s Central Valley. The company I work for owns vineyards and a large wine bottling and distribution plant there, so I have reason to take the hour-long drive east to visit from time to time.
Lodi was settled by pioneers in the 1850’s and incorporated into a city in 1906. In 2006 there was a big celebration on its 100th birthday. One event with lasting impact was the work of 100 Walldogs painting 11 murals commemorating the town’s history. My collage of Lodi scenes includes one of those murals, sponsored by General Mills who operated a plant there at the time. The plant has since closed, but the mural remains. I’ve also included a shot of the town’s water tower with its homage to the centennial.
