Paul Livingstone and Alma Cielo had a little party on Sunday at the plaza at Zorthian Ranch. They asked me to describe "The Wildest Party in LA History" Did the best I could on short notice.
Tara McNamara Zorthian held her album release party at upper Zorthian Ranch several weeks ago. She was assisted by Rose Hoffman and Frank Hurricane. They put on a great show.
This container survived the big immolation that occurred last year for some reason. Since it was one of the few things left that we can use we made it into the ranch office. But it wasn't very attractive so we decided to make it more so. Many thanks to Kathryn Evans for her help on this.

Vesala - Tequila (virallinen musiikkivideo) Thought there was something familiar about this video when I saw it on YouTube. Upon closer inspection it has proven to be from a musician from Finland who approached us about doing a video of her song. Looks like this went up around 10 years ago so it gives a look pre January 8th 2025. Interesting video and a nice song.

Photo of Zorthian, Feynman and Davies families in La Mision, Mexico taken probably around 1976 or 1977. Around 1970 Jirayr Zorthian had an opportunity to purchase a beach house in La Mision Mexico and we began to spend time there. Several years later, Jirayr's invited his friend, Richard Feynman to come down and visit with his family. Richard liked it so much he decided to purchase the house next door. The presence of the Feynman family in La Mision during various vacations, led to a tradition of both families spending every Thanksgivng together in Mexico. One year it would be our turn to do the cooking and host at our house and the next year it would be theirs. During the 4 or 5 days we would spend there, there would be much visiting back and forth, much discussion and arguing over various intellectual and not so intellectual matters and just generally having a good time. Added to the mix was the Davies family. Richard Davies was a mathematician at Jet Propulsion Laboratories and his wife Gwenda was an artist from Wales . Various other family friends were also sometimes in attendance. Pictured here are, from the top left, Alan Zorthian, Carl Feynman, family friend Jane Morrison, Barry Zorthian, Richard Feynman, Alice Zorthian, Michelle Feynman, Brett Davenport, Dabney Zorthian, Richard Davies, Gwenda Davies, Jirayr Zorthian and Gweneth Feynman.
