My father-in-law Harry Murphy was the construction man for Union Oil Company who installed the tank farm on the hill at the south edge of the city. During those years the beach area was quite a playground for t he Union Oil families who for example had clam bakes in our marina beach area. I should see about it all being a part of our history here. Marjorie Murphy.
