Summary

[edit]
Description
English: (1 in a multiple picture set)

This backyard off Ward Way in Mentone, CA (Redlands, CA) enjoys the beauty of the Mill Creek Sanja as it flows by, coming down from Mill Creek in the mountains.
Spanish missionaries introduced the principle of irrigation in San Bernardino Valley, thus opening the way to settlement. Franciscan Fathers engineered, and Indians dug, this first ditch (or 'zanja') in 1819-20. In historical sequence the zanja supported the San Bernardino Asistencia, Rancho San Bernardino, pioneer ranches, orchards, and Redlands' domestic water supply

The correct Spanish pronunciation is 'sahn-ya,' but most locals pronounce it as 'sank-ee.'
