Snowing in Julian
While it was cold in TJ, Rosarito and La Salina on our day trip yesterday. Its so much colder here at home. The snow is really coming down and so
beautiful out right now. Our La Paz rescue puppy's, are having a blast playing in the snow. From La Paz to Julian what a climate change for sure.

Pompano------What a fantastic set of stories----if there was a contest you would win. In all my travels over the years (since '54) I have only
encountered snow in Baja twice, once near Catavina and it was a blizzard tho it did not stick, and once at Laguna Hansen, where we were camped out,
and it did stick, at least for a few hours. Pretty wild.
Thanks for the stories. Barry

Pompano,
Now I understand why you spend so much time in Baja Sur. Great cold weather stories. More Porfavor.
I bet there are many folks who spend serious time in Baja that have great stories to share and we all win from reading the experiences of those few
who post here. Personally, I'd love to read every word.
Thanks for your great stories.

Pompano, if JW Black still comes down there, please invite him to see the Choral Pepper photos. He might get a kick out of them, since he is in many
of them (40 years ago)... Thanks! http://choralpepper.com

in the winter. |
Anything below 40 is freezing to me, but i know what you mean, i had the pleasure of spending two weeks in watertown NY a few years back during the
winter, and this is nothing compared to that, i guess its the same the other way around, yesterday i saw a bunch of american tourist?s in avenida
revolucion with only T shirts!!!! walking around in this weather, i am sure they where from upstate NY.

In the mid 80's I flew to Mazatlan and other southern destinations and saw snow on the Sierra Juarez and San Pedro Matir two or three times - very
amazed - but there it was. If I'd of had good glasses, I might have seen JR out there.

A few years ago in JUNE we were up in the San Pedro Martir and had light snow and 18 degree weather at night. My gallon jug of anti-hangover water
was frozen solid--brutal!

Pompano and others
Great stories--I have been trying to collect stories on Baja Patty for some time and hope to do a chapter on her in one of my books. Any stories
about the Quite Unusual Lady will be much appreciated. I am sure that Nomads who have not been exposed to her legends will get a huge kick out of how
she carved a place for herself in Baja and in the hearts and minds of those who have known her--No, I never got the chance to meet the Lady but I have
heard many stories about her.
Any help will be appreciated.
Mulege will never be the same without her.
My smidgen of a claim to fame is that I have had so many really good friends. By Bernie Swaim December 2007
