Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Punta de Laguna adobe on the south side of the old lagoon or lake, Santa Barbara County, September 4, 1937. A one-story building with a sloped roof and covered porch can be seen at center. Arches are visible at front, while plants grow in a garden enclosed by a wire fence in front of the building. What appears to be a broken wooden fence can be seen leaning against the wire fence to the right of center. A second gate can be seen at left, while a hill can be seen behind the building. A wooden shack is visible in the right background. Photoprint reads: "owned by Mr. Righetti who also owns and lives at the Todor(?) Santos Rancho. Adobe recently restored".
