Hey there, Nomads...Hola. Nice to see you. May we join you again? The Interent being what it is...we have never been that far away. Thanks for wondering about us though...we have been quite busy for the last few months in the cold country and I had little if anything about Baja to post...and I know you don't want to hear about frozen details of North Dakota, Canada, and Alaska. Although there were some very unusual and interesting events.........but maybe another time when it won't ruffle any feathers.

We are just now back in Baja after some long days of travel from the Far North. Great to be back home again and looking forward to contributing some fishing and other Baja news to the board. We just got online today thanks to our San Lucas amigo, los frailles. So... you are forewarned and it will be your own fault for reading any posts I may make.

We stayed at BajaCactus Motel at El Rosario and enjoyed it very much..although I had to help Manuel adjust the sat-tv to get some CSI crime show Felipa has become addicted to lately. Again, the rooms there are nice, clean, have big beds and we always leave refreshed...although it gets a trifle chilly in the winter months. Picked up a Canadian hitchhiker who was stranded at the bus stop there and got him to Mulege. The bus stop cafe has great food, by the way...buffet style.

Went around many caravans headed south. Guess tourism is on the rise.

Now time to unlimber fishing rods, line up some reels, and pray to the wind gods. Will be back later...adios for now, Pompano.

p.s. I have one sad, but necessary apology to make to Dave....the bottle of gin I was going to procure for you from our London-based daughter did not make it across the pond. Next time, my friend. That martini will be that much sweeter.




I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Must have been some kind of party.

Not to worry, my upper lip will remain stiff. ;)

I appreciate the thought, anyways.

Not an attack, Jan, just a flash-back to years gone by....

Marinero,


I didn't think of it as an attack at all.

I'm still puzzling through why I got such an instant response to the OP's question.

I posted a lengthy explanation because why I connected so fast after reading the post is a mystery to me.

Cheers and here's to Baja: the people who love the special place and the people who make this bulletin board a special place.

Regards.
Gypsy Jan

Why North Dakota? If you only knew....


We thank you for the welcomes. And to answer why one would migrate between Baja and North Dakota is very easy.

North Dakota is a lot like rural Baja. You meet so many interesting friends on shopping days to town. Here's Felipa and I going shopping in ND.

Hola Bob/Susan....Yesterday there was a flurry of FM-3 people in Cochania...(slang for Sta. Rosalia). We had Olivia Canul do our FM-3's again. She is fun to deal with and we have some history with her and Loretta up there. One of these years we might try doing them ourselves, but we would miss the fun of interaction and then too, it helps to support the local economy.

I will try to keep my boat-wake down as I pass your place on my way out fishing!
