Photograph of an exterior view of the Palomares adobe, showing the stairs to the attic, ca.1900. The back of a one-and-a-half story adobe is pictured at center, a long set of wooden steps leading to a door in the clapboarded second floor of the adobe. Creeping vines have grown along the right side of the home and are overtaking the roof as well as lingering down across the spackled walls of the first floor. Lush, overgrown vegetation fills the foreground.
