Paula 1968 to 1972.
In 72 I was soending a lot of time up at San Nicholas with Enrique Murillo, Alvaros Brother. Had a heat Stroke and they took me to Loreto to the
little Clinic where I consumred 16 Bottles of /glucose and Dr. Timmions came over and gave me 8,000cc of Potassom==.
Jamie park had not yet arrived on the scene there was hardly anything around and near the Mission. Had a New Years Party on Top Floor of the Municipal
with Music and Dancin. All before the Road opened.
It was a different time and different attitude about life. Only 5 Americans around Ben Benner, Tio Don O'neil, James Kimbrough Fred Shields and
myself, then along came Rosedall, Jamie Parker and Vaughn.
What a Bunch!!

Skeet, you have the best stories of the old days! I'd love to have seen Loreto before the higway, though I'd never heard of it at the time.
And maybe for the best-- I was engaging in all sorts of behavior you wouldn't have approved back then-- and it was such a small town!

I think SEX is Great I just don"t like it out in the open in Public.
Paula do yo live out North of the La Pinta??
Loreto was a very laid back Village early on in life. The Main History being the Start of the First Mission. The surrounding area was controlled
mostly by Senora Gloria Benziger Davis{Owner of the Oasis} Father. He had control of most of the Cattle area.
There were three different places you could Dance on the Week nites, Horse Races once a Month, Boxing Matches several times of the year{Chino Yee was
one of the Best along with Cesar's Rest owners Son
A Convair 880 came in every other Day after Stopping a GN and Mulege then on to La Paz, returning the next Day.
Yellowtail were still being caught from Shore as they chased the Sierra along the Beach.
Happy Days..

Skeet I don't live on the beach north of town, but I do go walking up that way with Don many mornings. Your old place up there has a new look. Have
you seen it?

"Some Folks like to have all of those "make you feel secure things around them"
Like trash and streaming sewer fluids and rubble? Who would be these folks? 1968-72 was a long time ago - before the highway was built. Wake up
and smell the cafe au laite.
