In 2000, I once seen a Filipino American Photo Exhibit at a Stockton Museum. I was so surpized to see old pictures of the early days in California when the first Filipinos arrived here. I remembered my parents had such a collection stored at their south side home. It had been stored for the past 30 years. So, I found 3 luggages full of old family pictures dating back to the early 1900's. There were also old documents dating back to the 1800's, written in Spanish, Ilocano & English. There was much to research and it has taken me 6 years. Tracing my family history, and origin is quite hard, but I had pictures, documents and stories my parents & relatives kept tellimg through the years. With the use of the internet I was also able to research further. Alot of my relatives are mentioned & have played a part in Philippine history.

It only cost five bucks for a picture with these gals. Not bad, although i should have look around more at the bike show. There was another booth that had centerfold models for ten dollars more, but the like was longer.
