Dunno, perhaps because it sounds better when you say it like that? It was always Nor Cal while I was living up there.

expensive, but his work is good.
if I have a cheap ******* of a customer, then it's over to Miss Lynn and they get to fight with her on labor claims due to warranty issues.

Hey, bayou <waves from about 30 miles away> Just got mine done at B&R Block and Head in West Sac. (916)371-0512

Not cheap, but Rick's boys do some nice work. He says he gets work in from 9 states, and I believe it.

Careful driving into their lot. Ya might hit one of these.....

Good luck, bayou. FYI, when my heads were there, there were 2 other sets there that didn't pass inspection/evaluation. He sees a lot of cracked precups.

Let us know how it goes. His turn is usually a week or so.
