Nixon Spends Quiet Weekend at La Casa Pacifica
Former President Richard Nixon remained secluded at his oceanfront villa in San Clemente after a quiet weekend with family and trusted friends. He briefly left the compound for a Camp Pendleton swim and walk, accompanied by Bebe Rebozo and Robert Abplanalp, with a convoy of Secret Service and reporters. Financial ties to B & C Investment were noted as the firm holds Nixon’s estate mortgage, with an extension arranged for a balloon payment due, and potential legal action over alleged misconduct during his presidency looms.
