I've done that route to and from San Diego two times in the past four months. Both times we saved about 2 hours versus going through Tijuana/Otay.

I wonder why some of these guys are on this board. They contribute nothing but ridicule, sarcasm and negativity. No trip reports; no pictures.
Exercise regularly. Eat sensibly. Die anyway.

Oh my march back in time - there was such pleasant interactions on the original Amigos board!
The Robitaille family … Bernie Swaim … Ann Hazard - we bought her cookbooks … Travel Pearl (RIP) , Mindy, I cant remember the name of the woman
that lost her husband and we bought books to help her ? The pilot (gosh he is such a legend and I just cannot recall his name - we bought his books
too
Help remember others ?
We enjoyed sending in reports from Cabo .. it was such a wonderful beginning.
Cheers and regards to all.

So sad to lose friends to death... Seems like so many now...
Pilots who have written Baja books include Jimmy Smith (The Grinning Gargoyle Spills the Beans) and Dave Deal (who illustrated Jimmy's book). Dave
wrote books about the search for Noah's ark and the creation of the earth and he raced the early Mexican 1000s, before Score. He is maybe best known
for his comics in Car-TOON magazine, off-road racing themed ads, the Armorall Viking, and most of the talking cars in the Pixel movie CARS.
Fred Hoctor (author of Baja HaHa) had a large hospital bill after he died so Baja Nomads Paulina and Baja Bernie helped to sell his books to help his
widow retire that bill.
Some other Amigos or Nomads who we don't or won't see posting any longer include:
Baja Mur
Neal Johns
Dave in 29 Palms
Bedman
Brandi
Mike Supino
DikLang
Seatwill
Keri
There are others... many who no longer post, but might still be on this side of the rainbow...

Wishing all the best of health .. L

De nada!
You can see many of our old friends as they attended some of my Viva Baja events (2000-2006), and M's BBBB events (2001-2003), and the Pyramid Resort
Book Signing events (2003-2008). Photos from them are on my site, www.vivabaja.com
Here is the link to my Viva Baja #3 photos, which had over 100 guests: http://www.vivabaja.com/vivabaja3/
