Great photo provided by Roxanne Mueller of old El Rio near the intersection of Highway 101 and Vineyard Avenue in Oxnard. The building was known as the Doghouse bar with plenty of great stories to tell about it. Roxanne said the photo also shows her old house on Mrytle Street. Just to the left of the Doghouse is El Rio Drive where just out of the picture were the homes of Bertha, Evelyn and Toney Moraga.
