Hours afterward, in the fires of sunset, where the Sacramento and the San Joaquin tumble their muddy floods together, I took the New York Cut-Off, skimmed across the smooth land-locked water past Black Diamond, on into the San Joaquin, and on to Antioch, where, somewhat sobered and magnificently hungry, I laid alongside a big potato sloop that had a familiar rig. Red mittens with a black diamond pattern on the back are much run after. You can get off the train at Black Diamond or Antioch and travel around among the big farming islands on the steamers and launches. |
