Leo Carrillo Ranch, Carlsbad

Late November, 2009:

Papa and Ty

Dad got me out of my funk this morning and invited Ty and I to "Leo Carrillo Ranch" in Carlsbad for a photo shoot. My camera has been dead for some time, so I was more than excited to use Dad's amazing camera to shoot the sites at the Ranch. Leo Carrillo was best known for his role as Pancho on "The Cisco Kid" (1950-56). His family, though had been a part of San Diego History for some time. His ancestors had been part of the original Conquistadores of San Diego in the late 1700's. He purchased this beautiful ranch in the heart of San Diego in the mid 1900's. After his death, it lay untouched until recently, when it was renovated to it's original, beautiful, state, and made into a State Park. You can find out more info at: www.leocarrillo.com


My favorite photos!


Tyler especially enjoyed the "red carpet" and the peacocks"!

Thank you, Dad! :)
