Buffalo Ranch, Olinda, Chris Epting, and more.

You say you’re not looking forward to Thanksgiving leftovers? Why not join Chief Push-ma-ta-ha and his friends for buffalo burgers, baked beans and coffee at the Buffalo Ranch in Newport Beach? This photo by Bob Geivet is undated, but was probably taken in the mid-to-late 1950s. (Photo courtesy Old Courthouse Museum.)

At their last meeting, the O.C. Historical Commission named the Olinda Oil Museum and Trail an official historic location. They’ll put a plaque up on the site early next year.

Local author Chris Epting will sign his books (including Images of America: Huntington Beach) at Barnes & Noble at Bella Terra Shopping Center in Huntington Beach, Dec. 6, at 7pm.

Yesterland has added press releases from Disneyland’s first birthday, in 1956, along with photos of the park taken that same year.

Today’s Register includes an article about the Dreger Clock, which I wrote about last month.
