They make honey there. My uncle used to be Vice Principal in nearby Santa Fe Springs (and he and my aunt and their kids used to live in Rialto, also nearby). It's in the middle of Nowhere Nothingland (capital: Hemet, CA). Cucamonga is a Tongva word (the Tongva are native to the area, and also known as Gabrieleno Indians), as are Azusa and Topanga. This by itself should give one some impression of the phonetics of Tongva language. The Tongva used abolone shell as currency, which I think shows a certain aesthetic flare that our money for the most part lacks. We used to drive by Rancho Cucamonga on our way to Idyllwild for Thanksgiving every year. The end.
