Bakersfield, 1901. A boarding house by the rail yard that never stopped feeding people.

Where it stands, and the nearest room to it. Town centroids, not doorways.

Gaur egun

It opens for breakfast, which almost no Basque dining room does, and runs through to a late bar.

Lehen

It went up near the Bakersfield train station in 1901 and took in Basque men who arrived by rail and left for the hills with a flock. The boarders are gone; the long tables stayed.
