In this episode I have chosen to go into the folklore of California. Seeing as that is my state of origin there are a lot more things that I know about it and a lot more aspects of folklore that I feel ought to be drawn upon. This episode will emphasize northern California with the areas around Mt. Diablo (a mountain I know very well growing up) and the Napa Valley wine country.
