Another salute on this day of the dead


JR my friend I salute you

“Like others of his friends I was aware of some of the problems that JR faced over the past year or more. Hell! I was called a hypocrite by more that one member of this board when I disagreed, in a very forcible manner, with his attacks on some of the members of this board.

I visited him a few weeks before I posted this disagreement even knowing that he was very sick. Yes, he and I shared a lot! I must tell you that the absolutely the worst thing that you could wish for this Baja warrior is that he rest in peace.

Hell, no! He could never deal with that. Lashing out right and left was his style and what made him a darling of this board.

JR, know that you have not lost this old guy’s friendship and keep pulling the devil’s tail.

I missed you even before your were gone.”

I guess you can now understand how a guy who would take the handle “Ski Baja” really did march to a totally different drummer.

JR was a friend. . . .a foe. . . .and fun to know!




My smidgen of a claim to fame is that I have had so many really good friends. By Bernie Swaim December 2007
