I’ll second the David K choice. All of the other selections are very well positioned with their Baja contributions as well. |

I can’t believe no one has mentioned Pompano!
Roger inspired us with so many great stories over the years..

They're both great people. Daniel's son, Victor, is following in Dad's footsteps. Both are true watermen.

Try as I might, can't figure out if this is some sort of 'olive
branch' or not, a bit nuanced for me. But in this most
positive of discussions, I'll pretend it is.
I forgot to add a true gentleman from San Felipe, Tony Reyes

Coco for sure. Always have a great time there. Especially when he is really grumpy and I can mess with him in my very weak Spanish.

So, we had some guests stay with us and they told us the most amazing Coco story:
They were driving through Coco's corner headed south on a Sunday. He asked them to stop by Tecate and order him 30 cases of beer in Guerrero Negro.
and gave no money to pay for it.
Once in G Negro, they found a guy at the Tecate store and told him Coco wanted 30 cases of beer.
OK He answered.
A couple days later they were coming back north and decided to check on the beer status. What about Coco's 30 cases? they asked.
DOES HE WANT ANOTHER 30? asked the worker HAHAHAHAHA
Truer than true story.

I have been following this forum less than four years, so have not known much about many of the nominees.
For useful information, David K is at the top of the heap. For interesting posts, I would have a hard time choosing between Osprey and Pompano!
Community service is best represented by Antonio, or Blanca. As far as being a likable person, Pancho!
I can't pick just one favorite out of the may mentioned.

If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

When others would think their life is finished - he started.
Lotsa great personalities in Baja - none like Coco.
