Remember when?

• I have kept a business card from PVC but it doesn't have Mary's name on it. I must have collected it in the late 70s/ early 80's.

• I remember going there when I would camp at Plaskett Creek in the late 60s.

• Funny how it has the Cambria 927 prefix on the phone number! Love this post!

  • The few landlines up here are all 927 prefix and always have been — the school, the USFS station, Gorda. Many homes along the highweay. Always.

• Thanks for the memories Kate ….Of course I remember Pacific Valley…Alan

• Richard and I would often go ther for coffee during our Hudson Ranch days

• We moved from the Chicago area to Boulder Creek in 2021, but have traveled to Big Sur yearly since the mid-80s. I recall having a delicious grilled fish sandwich at the Pacific Valley Center.

• Anyone remember L'Auberge a Mi-chemin in Gorda?

• Every time my husband and I would drive by there after it closed He’d say they always had the best pies. The wild flowers in the spring are still beautiful

• We only had to dial 4 digits to reach anyone with a 927 # in Cambria.
  Later, at Piedras Blancas , we graduated to an 8 party line and had to dial the 927 part.

• I remember it well! I worked there when Tom and Hatty ran the place! I replaced Irma Gould when they moved to Cambria. I went to school with Mike and knew his parents well!

  I'm currently writing a book about my life as a child, growing up in Big Sur. I'm hoping to get it published by July, this year!!
