Grandpas
Stan and I headed down to SQ to fish a few days (wind had other idea) and as usual we stopped at the Grandpas' house just north of Camalu. We brought
clothes, blankets, and tons of goodies from Costco, and Mr. Dependable, Stan, always remembers to bring Depends which are also much appreciated.
Juan, the caretaker was preparing lunch for them when we arrived. Take a look at the photo of the gentleman in his room he shares with 2 others. If
that doesn't convince you to stop and donate anything or just stop by and visit I don't know what will. Turn off is at the Shipwreck sign - Al Barco,
Punta San Jacinto and takes 5 minutes. Please consider stopping on your way south. I guarantee you will leave with a warm heart and smile on your
face.

I bumped this as a reply to another "grandpas" thread. I wanted to suggest that they might need some shelving units - see photo above.

The House is on the right, and has a sign, there is a Beehive kinda building in front too.
The caretaker is Juan, his photo is above, (first image) he is in the blue shirt.
Thank you for helping.
