San Juan Capistrano, Part II

Glenn Frank sent me this image of the same area of San Juan Capistrano shown in my last post. If you click on the image, it should take you to an animated gif, fading from 1959 to the 2000s and back again. (Thanks, Glenn!)

Blogger seems to alter the image when its uploaded, which strips out the animation. I'm just going to leave it up as a still image.

Since this photo was taken, a majority of the structures at the Mission Inn Motel property (along the east side of Mission SJC) have been demolished. Some of the original orange trees at this site remain. Development activities at this location have been put on hold, until the economy shapes up and the land-owner & the city can work some of their issues out. Still hope to do some archaeo. work on the property, at some point in the future.
Wonderful aerials Chris. Thank you.
