David is no ones disciple ok?
Some like his information and some don't.
You don't....that is obvious. Do you feel overmatched in Baja knowledge and want a slice of that knowledge pie?
As another poster who you flamed opined.....you chase DK like a dog looking for a hydrant. Anyone who frequents this board can see this.
While DK always responds to you in friendship and with respect.
And here you are again......belittling him, suggesting he has disciples.....really?.....get over it.
From the palm tree, to his accounts of Hwy 5.....there you are, doing your damnedest to get in some digs.
Get off Baja Nomads.....resign....no one will miss your style of interaction with other Baja travelers or residents.

I do not have to compete when it comes to Baja knowledge. When it comes to palm tress..yes you are
correct Lol.
If you really look, you will find many of my posts that have nothing to do with David. 1000,s of posts.
The disciple comment is because I always expect people to jump out to his defense...Its the nature of this forum. Like JR used to say... The COOP.

Would it kill you to be a bit respectful and courteous when responding to any of DK's post?....like he is with you?...
Snarks do not serve anyone.
Is that too much to ask?

rts, DK owns this site... stated he was ''second in command" ... told me personally once, then denied it later, insinuating it was a doppelganger in a
foreign body talking to me. He is truly the one and only Nomania ruler of the site at the pleasure of his liege, the owner. You don't stand a chance
arguing with him on any topic as he will of course have a come-back and counter-point.
The old adage, "the old dog you can't teach new tricks to, chances are you never could".
And as usual, yet another thread morphed into all about DK.

This comment indicates both a lack of understanding of what's involved in providing this resource for the community for the past 16 years, and is
disrespectful of your host.

Exactly, Doug runs this show 100%. About the only help I can provide is to show the few here who post over-sized photos how to easily stay within the
Nomad limit and save Doug some valuable time for him so he doesn't need to resize those photos. Wish I could do more, Doug!

My kilometer system is this: Km. 20 (for example) is at or within sight of the marker. Km. 20+ is about 1/4 kilometer marker past. Km. 20.5 is about
half a kilometer past. Km. 20.5+ is about 3/4 a kilometer past.
If I could see a sign, then I noted it... from Punta Estrella to Puertecitos. In many places, the word 'Campo' was dropped from the name listed.

Looks like what Harbor Freight sells these days for 19.99. And I like them. And they are a perfect fit in the back of my Jeep. The things have a shelf
but no cup holder on the shelf so I have to use the cloth bag on the side for my drink.

I have one without the shelf.... Hate the shelf!!
When you gather round the campfire the shelves are always encroaching on valuable space.
Don't remember where I got mine but it has made 21 annual Baja trips.
We opened a new subdivision last weekend and I sat under the canopy and greeted customers, somehow that comfy old chair looked just a tad out of place
in a first class setting.

David, thanks so very much for your time, effort, and sharing with us about Baja.
We are putting a trip together for early next year after a 12 year absence from
Baja.
Thanks again, Steve & Cheryl

My pleasure, Steve. Please see my 2017 trip reports (#1-7) to have a look at much of the rest of my peninsula-wide research trips.

Great stuff!
Hi David, what a fabulous trip report. Thanks for the share.
I especially enjoyed your images and description of El Alamo and Laguna Hanson. Please let me join the next adventure in search of Melchoir.
Those sidewinder tracks were no bueno! Good move. And, you got stuck in the mud at Shell!!! lol! I'll bet you'll be back to the Baja within 6 months.
Peace to All, Viva Baja!

I hope so Vern!!
Thanks for the offer of co-driver, again. It was really fun traveling with you in 2011 on out Lost Mission hunt with other Nomads (BajaCat, TMW,
dtbushpilot, XRPhil, and the late bajalou).
I didn't get 'stuck' as much as my 'forward advance was halted'! Luckily, the Tacoma's locking differential and A-TRAC, combined, got me out so my
feet never got muddy!
