Los Alamos The Best Little Town This side of the Santa Ynez River R.S.V.P Now by replying to this email atsmee@casadumetzwines.com Join us at Babi's Tasting Room where Jason Mergenov, dedicated Los Alamos resident extraordinaire and Old Days Codger, will discuss our town's tribulations and triumphs through the years. FROM JASON: I have always been interested in history, from the civil war to WWII.  While I am only an armature historian, and by no means an expert, living in Los Alamos provides an opportunity to delve into the history of one small town and examine it from the “old west” and Spanish land grant days through today.  The basis for this talk came about through researching the history of Los Alamos in preparation for the 66th Annual Los Alamos Old Day’s festival, which will take place next week.  Researching on the Library of Congress website uncovered many newspaper articles from the late 1800s through the early 1900s that give a glimpse of our town right after it was founded.  From stage coach robberies and a railroad line through town that no longer exists, to an earthquake 110 years ago that shook the town for weeks.  What once was thought to be the seat of a brand new county to the little time capsule it is today. My goal is to share those stories with you and answer any questions as best I can and hopefully give a bit of history of our “Little LA”. Join us to learn more this Friday! Bring questions!
