Anacleto.... could you describe him a little bit more. How long ago did you knew him? Where in town did he lived?
I am curious to know who are you talking about because my grandfather name was Anacleto, however almost no one knew he had that name... and he used to
wear some pistols...... but he died long ago...could it be?... Did anybody else knew him...???

Last we heard he was still kicking. Just not as hard. He still lives in the same rancho across the carretera from K55. I will see if any one has an
update.
I have fond memories of him cruising thru camp on his horse and having trouble remaining upright in the saddle due to too much firewater running thru
his veins.

Just drove by K-55 yesterday....and was thinking of the waves from many years ago...and how a guy on horseback used to come collect a dollar from us
for camping but we tried not to pay him and would argue and leave before he could collect...don't remember the pistols.....

academicanarchist....
Not yet, however I found out that it was my great-great grandmother the one responsible for taking care of the church wich was build infront of the
mission, and eventually replaced, therefore, some of my fathers old relatives do have very old photos wich I am trying to retrieve...
Jrbaja....
I believe I know who are you talking about... yes I think he is the same person ... why...???.... is your car broken...???...

Thanks....
Grover....of course I would be glad to help out with the spanish language... just let me know what you need ... it will be my pleasure.
Now, about the air conditioning.. I am a bit confused.... is that an air conditioning for a office and/or home, or is that for an automobile.???
