There are all kinds of old acquaintances both human and non-human. For example some friends had gathered together and two of the more senior friends began discussing the former Red Bluff Land marks that existed in this small city over the year. One after another of these land mark acquaintances were mentioned, The Train Station once located on Walnut St. next to where the tire shop now stands, The Cone Kimball building, which housed Zuckweilers's Dept. Store. The once" marbled interior" of the U.S. Post Office building on the South Side of Walnut St., the Tremont Hotel on Main Street where the Shoe Store and other offices are now located. The Hill Apartments once located on Jefferson St. across from the west side of the Red Bluff Post Office. The Red Bluff Flower Shop located on the North side of Walnut Street across from Tip's Bar. If much of this sounds foreign to your ear, you can imagine the shock of the under fifty years of age friends who were listening to our stories of times past. One young woman finally interjected that she hadn't a clue to the Red Bluff we were talking about. It was her statement that drew my thoughts to the land mark history of our community that has become lost due to the trampling of the feet of progress. Just as there are old friends that may be out of sight, they are not out of mind to those they have made an impact upon us. For residents who have lived in Tehama County a long time, land marks such as the Tremont Hotel are like long time friends. The Tremont Hotel was located at 737 Main Street right next to Zuckweiler's Dept.
