Newly discovered cave painting of Sierra de San Francisco


This cave painting of Sierra de San Francisco may be Baja's greatest treasure.

The existence of the cave paintings were known to Spanish missionaries in the 1700's. They only became known to the the outside world in 1962, when an expedition was initiated by mystery writer Erle Stanley Gardner. The painters were probably ancestors of the Cochimi Indians who were early inhabitants of the area, but the motives for their primitive art are still unknown.

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Yes, he mentioned that, Neal, but said there was no family resemblence now-----"something tragically went wrong with your genes, apparently", he said. I got the impression that he had disowned you, citing your excessive habit of having so many WIW.
