Today’s picture was taken on Lower Bear River Road, and it is one of my favorite vistas around Ferndale. On a clear day you can see out to the ocean. From this point the road then drops down into Bear …

Being Mexican for a day

Knowlesville Posted on May 6, 2001 by MattMarch 22, 2019
George & Barnaby

George is Portuguese. I don’t know Barnaby’s nationality but I don’t think he’s Mexican. But here they are in yesterday’s parade, with George doing his best bandito impersonation. Although history shows us that very few banditos drove carriages.
