Good report!

Especially the Chris Weeble-Wobble Marzonie part. If he is not frozen to death, now I have something on him. Hee, hee, hee.

ursidae69, you made this morning's coffee read a special treat by letting me read your well-written and pictured report. That trip was great...thanks for taking us all along.



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

We all three have loved ones back home that couldn't attend and we were just travel companions on this trip.

My camp kitchen is made my campmate as described in this thread on another forum I frequent. It is a large box, but it was better than I was using.

Thanks for all the nice comments on my trip, I love this forum. :spingrin:

The web site says, 'sorry, sold out'... Sounds like he's not interested in making more, guess he's rich now??

Amazing photo, I love photos like that with a long road ahead of you. I'll make it to that beach someday. Maybe Fall 08. I might take an extended "find myself" sojourn to mainland and Baja in summer / fall 08 if the cards fall into place.

We were on ATV's from Punta Abreojos. Used the old roads most of which are no longer passable by car/truck. 350 miles in 3 1/2 days of beautiful coastline and desert.

Got a real kick out of your report and your humor even about yourself made the reading that much more fun. Your writing quickly showed the connection you and your two friends maintained and that you respected each others right to choose to do something or not do it or do something altogether different on the trip. You also understood your limits and this helped to keep you out of possible trouble on your trip and made it a success. Great writing and great pictures. Later------bajafun777
