Salvador Sanchez, Mecca CA

The first photos on this blog are of the man who inspired it all, my grandfather. Mi abuelito.



To many in the Coachella Valley he is known as "Don Salvador" a respectful and well known man amongst the agricultural working community because for many years he was a field supervisor or as many say a "majordomo." He has since retired and often does volunteer work around the Mecca community.   

Salvador always wears a sombrero or cap but takes it off upon instinct when he knows respect is owed. I've always noticed his Sombrero always comes off in church. His shirts always tucked in. Also notice how his shoes, belt & glasses case match. He always matches. Its perfect.
