Cannery Row
"Cannery Row in Monterey is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream." - John Steinbeck

Wing Chong
"The grocery opened at dawn and did not close until the last wandering vagrant dime had been spent or retired for the night. Not that Lee Chong was avaricious. He wasn't, but if one wanted to spend money, he was available." - John Steinbeck, in "Cannery Row"

Doc Ricketts' Lab
"Doc looked out the window of Western Biological. He watched Suzy walk past the vacant lot and up to the front porch of the Bear Flag. Just as she was about to climb the steps she turned and looked around. She thought someone was looking at her. She didn't see Doc." - John Steinbeck, in "Sweet Thursday",

Doc's Lab - Rear View
"... He came to the laboratory every day. It was an association without much talk... Better than anything else Frankie loved it when there were parties upstairs in the laboratory... Then he crouched down in a corner behind a chair where he was hidden and could watch and listen." - John Steinbeck, in "Cannery Row"
