The Locker Room is located at 441 San Benito Street, between Fourth and Fifth Streets. I just had to take a photo of its divine mannequin.
Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

Fourth Street Mural
This mural is so obviously there that I tend to forget about it. I don't know why. It's a beautiful mural, rather magical and mystical.
How about you? How many times have you waited at the traffic light or driven by this mural and not noticed it? Did you know that it wraps around the building into the small parking lot behind it?

Shop Locally: Dassel's Petroleum, Inc.
Dassel's is at the corner of San Felipe and Wright Roads, about a mile north of downtown Hollister. You can't miss it. Huge white tanks full of gas on one side of the road, and multiple blue tanks of propane on the other side.
Dassel's has been in business since 1939. Today, it offers propane, gasoline, and diesel fuel to residents, businesses, and agricultural growers.

The Back Alleys of Hollister: Wentz Alley
This is the backside of the building that was once upon a time the Lido Hotel. Hollister used to have quite a lot of hotels downtown. Today, there are only a handful.
