So, I guess what you're saying is that Peñasco has changed a bit in the last 79 years? :-)

You would have to ask GV Jack about that....

Yes

I thought it was a beached whale at first!

If you think about it it puts a perspective on the planned changes out on Sandy Beach. There was clearly a huge change in that area around the old port from that photo to today. Think there were complaints or objections about it back then !!??!

Not so much, I think. Besides, Jerry probably wasn't around at that time.

So was Al Capone camping when he came down or am I missing something? lol I thought Posada La Roca was built by the time this FOTO was taken? Or did Al Capone never come to Point Rock?

Good shot of the harbor but I was under the impression that it was not dug out that early ???? also looks like the ferrocarrile is gone.

That pic is Spring Break in 2007. Look in the lower left side and see GV staggering along there.

So where in the 1934 picture is the hotel Mrs. Stone built in 1928?

The hotel they are referring to is the La Roca.
