This episode of KEN KRAMER'S ABOUT SAN DIEGO answers a lot of questions. Why was there a castle built on San Diego Bay a hundred years ago? Is the County Building built backwards? Why is there a house in La Jolla where nothing lines up right? Is there a ghost train running at night in the East County? Why is a war memorial in La Mesa absolutely unique? And from Ocean Beach to Oceanside, we see things "About San Diego" sent in by viewers.
