LYNNE CHAMPLIN
Have you ever seen a full-grown lion sit down and rest right beside someoneâs feet at a dinner table? Not many people have been that close to a lion. Well, I saw it happen to a popular Napa woman years ago.
When I read the front-page article in the Register about the reopening of Six Flags in Vallejo there was a photograph of lions. Six Flags used to be Marine World/Africa USA. The photograph reminded me of the time I was sitting on the aisle at a Boy Scout fundraiser and watching a lion plop down and make herself comfortable at Ita Youngâs feet.
