On December 27, 1775, on a second expedition into California, Anza led through this pass the party of Spaniards from Sonora who became the founders of San Francisco. https://www.lapuertafoundation.org/blog/bob-cary-at-9-years-old-and-his-father-art-cary monthly 0.5 2022-08-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee0f2ef3a2853098f53e92d/1596989885796-TLFRYDMU703MBOYFE8BR/Bob+Cary%2C+9+years+old%2C+Art++Cary%2C.jpg Blog - Bob and Art Cary Mowing Hay - Bob Cary at 9 years old helping his Dad, Art Cary, mow hay.

Ramona would sit on the back with her feet hanging over the edge. Mrs. Smith wanted to take Ramonas picture so Art Cary and his father Noah Cary took Greta to Ramonas home at the north end of the Cahuilla Reservation. This is where Greta Smith took Ramonas photo. After this picture was taken Mrs. Smith asked Ramona for an object that was laying on the ground beside her. She shook her head no, then went into her home and returned with this basket and gave it to Art Cary. https://www.lapuertafoundation.org/about daily 0.75 2025-05-05 https://www.lapuertafoundation.org/contact-us daily 0.75 2020-11-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee0f2ef3a2853098f53e92d/1592000248459-KRTFSN5CL2EIY7R8QIU4/RanchEdit.jpg Contact Us https://www.lapuertafoundation.org/home daily 1.0 2025-07-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee0f2ef3a2853098f53e92d/4cefab86-811d-4a21-9226-815118d90e3e/CaryRanch.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee0f2ef3a2853098f53e92d/58ab05ca-5ce8-4560-9726-25e8c248de59/Greenhouse.jpg Home - The buildings on the Cary Ranch were built in the early 1940's are in dire need of restoration. Now that the roof of the barn has been repaired, the greenhouse is the next building in dire need of attention. The La Puerta Foundation is once again asking for your donations to preserve the greenhouse to a stable and secure building. Thanks for you continued support.
