Created by Jengod (talk). Self-nominated at 22:54, 2 April 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Ranchos of Los Angeles County; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Suggestions on the colors? I wanted to convey "dead end" versus "carried on to the American era" visually. jengod (talk)
