Great trip report. The day by day happenings really lay out a vivid picture in between the ears. Next time it's Baja time (October - April) will have
to leave the Coors Can parked at BOLA and head over to Shari and Juan's place. They sound like great people. Again fantastic report, it was refreshing
to read it.  
Sometimes you really do question; why you are and where you are.

So uh, whoever Mr.Miserable Cuss is..uh tell me why exactly would I wanna kick your butt??? did I miss something here? Ya know I find it facinating
how rude men from the united states are to each other...it is so embarassing when you dis each other and treat each other so badly here in baja. It
really does bother me when people not from here come here and then treat others who come here like crap...why???? Santiago happened to be a very nice,
generous, concientious baja traveller who happened to have a nice wardrobe.....and deserved better treatment....it was his first time in San Roque and
was at least man enough to ask for some advice.

Oops; He said "Shirley" not Shari.
You are right though, all this macho hoo-ha is, how shall I say ......... but then, that would be rude.

Shari, It's the "I was here before you" mentality. Like somehow you are invading their space. It goes the other way too. If you offer advice to a
new person who has not asked, they will often look at you sideways and not say a word. Not that I would ever do that. I have written on this subject
before. It is too bad, but it is what it is. 
Once again, great report Santiago.

I once read a study on how bank tellers will remember you if your fingers happen to touch theirs. The teller may deal with hundreds of people in a
day, but if you happen to touch, you will be the one they remember.
I read another study that looked at healing rates in a doctors office. The doc hired a consultant when healing rates sky rocketed. People were healing
slower and infections were rampant, why? The consultant questioned everyone in the office and found that they had hired a new receptionist. The
patients said "the old receptionist was so nice. She would always great us by name and ask how we were doing. She seemed to really care about me as a
person. I miss her. The new receptionist is curt and doesn't give me the time of day." The doc refilled the position with a compassionate person and
the healing rates returned to normal.
There is a real reason that most of us feel good around smiling, friendly people and this is particularly so in Mexico where the pursuit of good
feelings is the norm.

This is just the strangest capper to an otherwise excellent trip report that I can ever recall seeing on Nomads.
Clearly, message boards leave much to be desired as a complete communications tool. Information, yes; communication, so-so.........
