New bridge coming to La Ribera


From yesterday's Gringo Gazette:



I remember crossing this arroyo when going to visit George Bergin (Osprey) from Todos Santos. He told me that a good rainstorm would cut off the town for as long as two weeks. I can't imagine that the new resorts in the area would tolerate that potential loss of income!

I do remember that wash during one storm. I called Osprey and said I'd be late!

George/ Jorge aka 'Osprey' was quite the guy! I enjoyed meeting him and his wife at their home in 2017. His wife passed not long after our meeting, and Osprey joined her a few months later.
