Thanks Markitos
Dinner was great. In fact, whomever was next to us in the permanent site (I believe his name was Curt or Kurt from Morro Bay) at Bahia de Los Angeles
got to experience it as well.

Excellent as always Amigo.
Please keep them coming. Is it my imagination or did you guys cover a LOT of ground this trip?

Herb, you rock. I swear I started salivating when I saw the calamari. What kind of hot sauce is on it? And nice photo of the good folks up at SPM.
A few years ago the mechanics up there tried valiantly to patch a BFG TA that I'd managed to rip a nice big hole in. When they finally had to accept
failure, they were so apologetic you'd have thought they made the hole in the first place. Great people. I'm jealous though. Didn't I read
somewhere else that you got a tour of the observatory? I didn't even know to ask if that was possible when I was up there.

I didn't either. What happened was, the gate before the final stretch of paved road was open, but the sign said that we could not go through without
permission from the "super." So we inquired with the mechanic shop and they used their radios to summon the super. Apparently, he was in a good mood.
Not only did he give us permission, but he joined us and gave us a ride and a tour.
I suspect that his good mood may have had something to do with the fact that he was expecting a busload of 50 college summer interns and may have had
visions of emulating our 42nd president...

Great photos Herb! And although I've never much cared for calamari, I can tell by that pix that I've just never eaten it fixed the right way.
