Old Timers
One of the first things you notice about San Miguel, especially this time of year, is that the demographics of our expat population skew decidedly toward the long-of-tooth end of the spectrum. Lots of canes, wrinkles and high fiber diets. But as we hear about and meet many of the old timers, people who've been here since the 40's and 50's, we're completely amazed and grateful to them for creating the weird and wonderful culture that makes San Miguel so unique. Recently, our local paper, featured Dotty Vidargas, who we knew only as the elderly owner of a well-established real estate firm in town. Boy, were we wrong. Check out the link, and you'll see what I mean.
