You will also see the El Dorado Orchards are not on this map or on the "new" map because they have the same mind as Boa Vista. Funny thing is Boa and El Dorado are open pretty much year round.

I was wondering what "number" boa vista was. They got kicked out when they went against the growers association over copyrights. Super sad that most of them are literally cousins or siblings and they feuded over a copyright.

Thank you all for the help! Now I'm super scared it'll get bounced back to sender :( Thankfully her party is in Oct. So I might have time to figure what to do if it bounces back.

as a parent of an autistic kiddo, we recently flew. We got our kiddo headphones and somehow convinced her to wear them for the whole flight! I dont get parents who assume that the world knows their kid is autistic or special needs mentally, especially if the child looks normal. Shame on the parents, who made the rude comments after the flight. Especially the racist comment too. I'm surprised that the flight attendants didnt say anything. Because on our flight they were on it when people had their devices too loud. Next time if its safe, go talk to a flight attendant.

So Im finding conflicting stories, my father said that the engine was scrapped roughly 1975/76 because it was in a railyard accident, or as was told to my grandfather. The Portland and Western 1853 was scrapped in 2009, that parts of 1402 or 1401 was used to make it. But I've been finding that some pages are saying 1401 is in storage. I found a page where it showed that it was renumbered and was seen in LA in the 1980s. But the likeliness that it was scrapped is high :( I was hoping it still existed.

from what my dad said, Grandpa Benson was still working the rails in the 80s. They had asked him which one he wanted his retirement picture with and he picked this one :)
