It's a weird, meandering article. The author even contradicts herself, correcting those who call the pueblo "El Pescador" and then using the incorrect
phrase herself a few paragraphs later. Is she paying Pesky a compliment ("Pretty much nothing happens in Pescadero, it’s just people quietly living
the Mexican experience") or telling her readers to stay away, touting Pueblo Pescadero as "your only option"? It's hard to tell what her intent is
beyond confusing people.
It reads as if her only Pescadero experience was brief, and probably less than positive. I don't live there, but even I know that fresh produce is
available at Agricole and the Sunday Farmers' Market at Baja Beans. There are probably more options than that if one bothers to look for them.
I agree that Pescadero is changing for the better. It's why I keep coming back, and why I look forward to the day when I can stay for longer than a
week. |
