After she drove down from Los Angeles just this morning, I walked around Old Town with Stephanie, my friend from New Mexico who was at the end of her whirlwind visit of California. Took her to see the Seeley Stables museum, the restored original Casa de Estudillo adobe, took her inside the Church of the Immaculate Conception, passed the haunted Whaley House and finally down to the El Campo Santo Cemetery where I showed her Yankee Jim Robinson‘s grave as well as the grave markers on the street outside the cemetery walls. Finishing off our brief excursion we also got to see a donkey being led around by a park ranger. Not bad for a forty-five minute tour of Old Town.
