Baja Spice
I sorta agreed with someone here who pleaded with us to get back on track and start discussing basically Baja information that people need or wanted
as it related to their needs to fish, travel, eat, and camp in this Paradise.
Well, after a bit of time on this course I think that something is missing. It's now kinda like going to a dance where there was no music or
attending a fiesta without food.
So! I thought I would put this thread up and see where it goes--hopefully with a bit of gusto.
Who posted this in the past? Clue--He lives in Arizona and thinks Baja is not the only part of Mexico.
"The qualities of being a drunkard or a son of a b-tch are only removed in the cemetery"
or this one--
"Chastity and honesty are easily lost." Clue--Two generations of his family have had a home in Campo Lopez.
I hear the music of Baja--anyone ant to dance?

Would love to dance, Bernie, but will have to sit this one out. I have no clues as to who this person may be.

Okay!
I was really hoping for the reaction of Corky 1!
And, yes, Keri is right in that our swave friend Elgatoloco has played in Campo Lopez since he was in diapers and harvesting shells for his mother to
help him build things with.
Comitan you got it Oso (oso close). But I doubt that he or his family ever came close to Campo Lopez if only because he 'don't' like the Pacific.
Hope this was fun!
Okay, But I really do not know how to weave this into my new book---which by the way is keeping me up late at nite and early in the morning. Having a
ball, but sadly it will not be ready for Keri's book signing on May 6th of 2006--Is this three or four--I only ask because I sighed on for five.--Do
you hear that Madame Keri. ( I kid her because I really love that lady)
Sorry if I fronted you off Matt but it was for a fun cause,
Elgatoloco almost confused me with his--'I'm Stumped'
Guess we can do it again if the folks want it!

Hey, I never said I didn't like the Pacific! I just haven't had as much time in BC as many of you. I have been up and down the mainland coast from
the Isthmus to Mazatlan many times, as far north as the other B.C. and lived in Venice Beach, Oxnard, Sta. Barbara and all around Pismo for many
years. As for B.C., I have friends in Ensenada & Pta. Banda, enjoyed fishing at Laguna Manuela, Erindera, San Quintin and Mag Bay. It's all
good!
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Oso my friend
You have friends everwhere. Don't be so lazy and write some more of your good stuff. Even if it ain't Baja it still reflects the same spirit of the
people.
Here is another of your wonderful sayings---"Pa' todo mal, mescal. Pa' todo bein, tamibein"---OR--- For everything bad, mescal, for everthing good,
the same.
Salud!

And if the wind is blowing in the right direction, you can breathe Baja air from Oso's house

Thanks Ferna, almost forgot about TJ. Wasn't thinking of it as "Pacific", but of course the Playas neighborhood is.
