Ghostly mourners watch over the (cake-based) body of Marcel Proust at the Proust Wake, commemorating the anniversary of his death on November 18, 1922 (and this year, the 100th anniversary of the publication of Swann's Way).
Discovered that there is another Bridgeport in California in addition to the one on Hwy 395 that I've been familiar with all my life. This is a spot in the road along Hwy 20 in Gold Country, and it is home to the longest covered bridge in the US, built in 1862. The bridge spans the Yuba River.
