I knew Ernesto his wife hated it here so they lived in Chula Vista and he managed the Travel lodge in the 80's. He had the place rented out until he
could sell it. His wife never wanted to come back after leaving here.
But I don't have any pictures.

the photo - wow - those were the days. And when I read the E. Stanley Gardner books too, I am so envious. The adventure, confronting the land as it
is, acting on a dream to explore. Just not too much of that left anymore. And to think that all the changes have occurred in the past 75 years. For
the previous 2 million years, it remained relatively untouched. And Ernesto's wife hated it there? She preferred Chula Vista?

Glad to share my experiences and collections here with all Baja enthusiasts!
If you go to the Baja Historic Interests and Literature forum, you will find a lot of interesting stuff I have posted the past 8 years here on

In the 80 no phone's no tv, no radio, and many groceries not sold here. the milk was always bad by the time it was sold here. beef was in the back of
the pickup until it went to the butchers flys and all. no produce. what ever you needed you had to go to Ensenada and then sometimes they did not
have it. So yes she did preffered chula Vista Hey it had everything san quintin did not have.
