California Shell, 941 California Street, Redlands CA 92374

Yes, I have been to every restaurant in Redlands, as I define the term. No, I have not been to every food serving establishment in Redlands, and I probably never will. But this day, I did.
For reasons that are still not clear, I went to Pharaoh's Lost Kingdom for a going-out-of business sale of their arcade. I did not sign up to bid, and there were only a few things I would be interested in. Maybe the nacho machine. I really should have taken pictures. This was my first and last visit to Pharaoh's, I hear they have other plans for it.
Anyway, even though Pharaoh's once had food service, they did not at this event. And it was hot. I needed a pair of drinks.
I left the parking lot, went south, to the California Shell, (also known as Chase Petroleum) where I simultaneously gassed up the family car. A baby-faced CHP officer was leaving the mini-mart. The CHP usually share my taste in food. I've seen them at Charo Chicken, La Costa Mariscos, and Chili's San Bernardino.
I'm careful when eating at mini-marts, and I was thirty, not hungry. I bought a Gatorade (24 oz, Extreme Berry + Fruit Punch) (mini-mart priced at the low low price of "$2.120" according to the receipt, plus 8 cents CRV). It's hard to rate a Gatorade, but it rehydrated me.
