NOTICE

Wednesday, June 11, 2014

Unfortunately, there has been a property invasion at the camp ground and the Cantina was taken over and demolished. At the moment the flush toilets are not working, the internet is not operational and there is no electricity. Manuel and Juan Jose are there taking care of the area. The palapas are open and the house and suite are open. We are setting up the water truck to dispense water. Bring your shower bag. God willing, this will get sorted out too.

Use a photo hosting site like photobucket or picasa


There are many photo hosting sites, Photobucket.com is one used by many here, it is free for basic membership and very cheap for advanced.

1) Create an album for your trip or subject on Photobucket.

2) Click Upload (top center) to transfer photos from your PC folder to your Photobucket album.

3) Click on the gear symbol on the right corner of the box you see on the screen...





4) Select 800 (full size) or 640 (large size) for Nomad posting...



100x75 is the Avatar size, fyi.

5) Click SAVE!

6) Select photos you want to share on Nomad (or other forums) by pressing the Choose Photos & Videos button (or for the entire folder of photos, click Choose Folder).


Once done with uploading photos, make your post here on Baja Nomad and add photos using the IMG link from the choices of links for each photo in your album. Copy and paste that link in your Nomad thread, double spacing between links. Add a caption to the photo if desired... Click Preview Post to check your post... if okay, click Post Reply.

Greed often ruin the good things, eh?

Pretty soon the Californian owners will put up fences, build their little vacation pads out of sustainable materials, and entertain their insufferable friends from OC. Soon their guests will be posting questions on this board, like "where can I buy organic veggies and fair trade coffee and in san juanico?"

Karmic retribution will be the house robberies that liberate their fancy boards, ATVs and flat screen TVs.

In 20 years the house owners will be on this board complaining about some new mega resort that will ruin san juanico, not self aware enough to realize that the resort will be the second ruining, and they were the first.

:(:(

What are you talking about? You're not making sense. Did I say something? Please elaborate.

Honestly I think people that head to Baja with 22 people and 11 surfers ruin Baja. Are you affraid to be alone? Baja is best with solitude. People shudder when a group like that shows up! :no::no:

Good thing there will only be 13 of us next month with maybe two surfers. Not afraid to be alone but enjoy relaxing with family and friends in settings other than a backyard BBQ.

Good news is that they are not the windansea buttholes. Just some families heading out for summer vacation. All well behaved and well versed in etiquette. Remember, there will always be another wave..............:dudette:

I wouldn't mind a nice vacay pad on the point.............Its inevitable to happen, Im very surprised we have been able to camp as long as we have here.......I hate to admit it, but its 2014, cash talks and us gringos camping here with million dollar views spending $100 a week doesn't seem like its doing much for San Juanico, but oh well, there are lots of places on the planet to see

I think this is how the Mexicans look at it, economically the campo is an underutilized resource. Development will bring in big $ for the community. If Ruben can find a way to negotiate for both, better yet.

And if you can't count the members of your group on one hand, you have too many people with you and are at risk of over taxing the limited resources we all have to share down there. If you want to travel with a large group that is what Disneyland is for.

easy there, Chris! just cuz you got your spots all set up at the busiest spots around doesn't mean you can start calling the shots. A LOT of us have been going into SA & SJ since the early 80's and have watched them turn into a surf ghetto..... we all want solitude but you have staked your claim at the 2 busiest spots, depending on the time of year.

just sayin.....
