In the winter of 1861-62, John L. Sears settled in the mountains 17 miles from Redwood City. He named the place La Honda and built a store that was sometimes called the 'Bandit-Built Store' because two men that he employed, Jim and Bob Younger, newcomers to the area, were later proved to be members of the James Boys gang.

There is nothing left of the store. There is an impressive wild berry patch where it stood. The photo of Applejack's to the right was taken from in front of that berry patch. Applejack's was once a blacksmith shop built by John Sears in 1879. Later it as a store owned by John Sears. In the 1920s John Apple Jack Gabrielle (1869-1954) converted the store into a roadhouse where he served Applejack made with apples from his own orchard.
