I've related this story before, but this vist to Troy was on our cruise in the Aegean Sea. When we were in Istanbul, we did the Bospherous cruise which included lunch at a restaurant called the Garag. Another couple sat with us at our table, so I asked them where they were from, and the guy answered "Lodi." I said, that's where my brother is from. It so happened that he's a professor at University of the Pacific, and he has visited my brother's ophtholmology office in Stockton. My brother is now a Assemblyman in the state for the 10th district, and now serving his second term (having won by a majority - over 75 percent of the votes).
