Photo of Choral Pepper and I added to choralpepper.com


I have doing some cleaning and organizing and found a photo of Choral Pepper and I taken at one of my meetings with her back 6-8 years ago.

As some of you already know, Choral was a big fan of the desert and Baja... publisher of Desert Magazine in the '60's and with husband Jack, traveled with the Erle Stanley Gardner expeditions in Baja.

Choral gave me her entire Baja collection of photos and letters from her Desert Magazine days, along with her favorite painting she made of a 'Baja Dream' and the manuscript to her last book on Baja's missions, mysteries and myths.

I made a web page to share her collection of photos from those Gardner expeditions and more: http://choralpepper.com

Choral passed away in 2002...

David, thanks for the glimpse into the past of baja travellers... Those cave paintings are amazing.
