Ok.
Maybe this show can help them be properly protected in the future. I would rather see them locked than loved into non-existance.
I can't imagine anyone touching them for legitimate research for any reason no matter how many books they have written.
Especially then.
Maybe Terra Peninsular can help. They are affliated with the San Diego Natural History Museum.
Seems like their general area of study.

I am trying to think, what good is a historic location if NOBODY can see it anymore? It is published, it is preserved in photographs, so let the
people see it.
An earthquake or flash flood may erase it forever. Think of the poor painted cliff between Loreto and San Javier, covered by mud and rocks after the
flash floods of 5 (?) years ago. Mother Nature touches these sites all the time with wind, rain, sun, and sand... Again, I didn't see any abuse of the
pertos by Scott.
I appreciate your passion, Mike!

David, Thanks for the preview and detail of what goes into producing a short video like that. It is just as well these sites are remote and harder to
get to. There isn’t really enough traffic to justify full time guides and protection of the site in most cases. If the locations were well known and
easily accessible it wouldn’t be long before they would look like the graffiti around Catavina, particularly since the roads are getting better and
you know Mama Espinosa’s saying about good roads and bad people.

Yes, indeed.
I have not seen the show either, it is a one-hour network show, however. The location is locked so I was not concerned with publicity on the location,
although I am not sure if it will be given. I did talk about Mission San Fernando (a kilometer from the petros), but none of the mission was filmed
and who knows if what I said will get cut out?
The road was pretty bad for us last February with big pools of water to drive through and rocky sections. The producer/director was getting so worried
about what we were doing to the rental cars, he refused to drive any closer so we walked the last 1/2 kilometer to the cliff.

Are you on IMDb yet?
Do you have an agent? Fishbuck needs a job to buy that Toyota Tercel he has been lusting after, why don’t you hire him to be your agent?

DK, I think you unearthed the wrong thing.
Who let a stinky old goat in here?

Well, tonight's the night.
We can see how traveling 4 days in Baja, with 3 days filming, gets edited down to about 15 minutes or ? of air time. Scott wrote me yesterday that he
saw the final edit and it looks good. I hope it is as much fun to watch as it was to make!

Great Tom, my mother-in-law, in Palm Desert also has it listed at 10 pm. However, John Grasson (Lost Ship of the Desert on Facebook and the guest
before me on the show) has Direct TV, lives in the Riverside area, says it is at 7 pm.
Regardless of what service, it is playing again two hours later (9pm or Midnight) plus three more days in June.
Hopefully, it can be seen On Demand as well?
Enjoy!

So little of all the filming in Baja was included. At least it showed how beautiful the desert in Baja is. I guess digging a hole in Imperial to find
rebar was more interesting? Ha!

Good job David. I was also surprised how little Baja footage was shown. Interesting theory too.

Thanks, amigos.
I am disappointed so little of the air time was spent in Baja considering how beautiful the scenery was and how much the film crew talked about the
locations after the shoot.
My acting career didn't get any boost I don't think, lol!
We spent a good amount of time saying lines and telling Viking legend stories both at El Mirador and while walking to the petroglyph, as well as
exchanges in the car driving. I need to watch it again but I don't think any of that was included?
My next TV appearance may be on the Trail of Missions show, September 2019 on ABC TV. At least all of that one-hour show will be in Baja and not just
10+ minutes!

It was on YouTube last night, but those seem to have been taken down (illegal copying?).
The show repeats 3 more times if you do not have On Demand service on your cable (if it is even available, on demand?).
One of the three is a normal time, too! LOL

I watched it last night and I thought it was an interesting show. David's part was small but tied into what the theme was. I did think it was funny
they found a piece of re-bar instead of the remains of the boat and then blamed it on the power lines.
