schwarzenegger spotted south of San Quinten
About 2 weeks ago Arnie and 4 professional baseball players were scene getting out of their private jet at an airport near San Quinten. They were met
by the ex Gov. of Baja Cal. then driven to a location south to apparently look at some property to build a resort. Has anybody heard any rumors of
this? My information comes from a very reliable source....

Something is going on at El Rosario, heard not long ago about a rumored airport and resort there. Can't imagine anything at San Quinten...too much
agriculture for a resort.

Pompano---Love your sense of humor. How true about San Quinten. Never felt very comfortable there. Too much poverty and overworked, underpaid
indians. Also am enjoying your world's shortest books. How about "Vietnam, the longest War" by John Kerry.
If there is no fishing in heaven, I am not going

It's no secret... The Diamante Del Mar project is well underway... The concrete jet airport is already in, and being used by the developer's private
jet (Antonio 'BajaCactus' has ridden on it)... You can see the runway off to the west of Hwy. 1 on the mesa before dropping down to El Rosario.
I visited the sales office/ guest condo last November. One of the developer's two on site reps reads this forum. We had Thanksgiving dinner with the
other, at Mama Espinoza's... See http://vivabaja.com/1104
Here is a photo I took of the project map that was in the sales office overlooking the ocean... Hwy. 1 is on the far right edge, then the runway
parallel to it. On the far left an orange arrow tag points to the office location. The golf couse will be like none other ever made... luxery homes
all inland of the course and all developing will be done with minimal impact on the terrain and the goal is to have un obstructed views of the ocean
from all 18 holes of each course. Roads will be slightly below grade so as not to interupt the view of the landscape... Perhaps we will hear more from
the expert on this, I am only recalling what I heard that afternoon.

Dave, Your probably right, those potted palms look too healthy for Baja Norte. Has anybody heard when the Costco will be built there?

When things really get 'rolling' down there at DDM, perhaps Antonio can get the Pemex Jet-fuel & Av-gas concession for that new concrete strip...
Maybe David K can get the golf course sprinkler concession there and then be able to spend all his time in Baja - or commute to SD in his new private
corporate jet when he hits it big-time...
As for me, I don't have such lofty goals, I'd just like to have the Liquor and Cerveza consession...to go along with my 'hotel-style', 'massage'
parlor business over looking the ocean...
If all else fails, I'll have to open a 'Tommy's Original Burger Shack' or an 'In & Out' Burger stand in a area that allows the aroma from the
kitchen to migrate into DDM's property each evening as the sun goes down...those 'Cheese Burger' hungry golfers will flock to my doors... ...I'll fuel my corporate jet on left-over burger fat, and my aircraft will
then smell like French Fries as it whisks me away to the Cayman Isles to count my big bucks...
According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"

I have already applied for the private Baja tour guide position!
This place is over half sold (to the rich and famous)... luxery homes follow the golf course construction... A small marina is likley going in on the
north end (near El Consuelo)... with land, sea, and air ports of entry, they could become an independent republic!

The development we will see in the next 20 years will be unbelievable. Unreal. Go and see Baja now, and as often as possible - she is changing so
fast.
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Baja will be a new experience to each person at the time of their first visit... That will be the Baja that they will want to hold onto and not see
change...
For me, it was a vast unpopulated desert wilderness void of paved roads... full of adventure, things to explore, lot's of history (mines, missions,
cemeteries, petroglyphs).
Here I am in 1967 at Molino de Calamajue (age 9 1/2) where Dick Daggett milled gold ore, across the arroyo from the Jesuit mission site...

El Rosario.....cold, gloomy, fog A LOT,
low layered slag....did i mention morning marine layer till 1 - 2 PM?
give me sun shine man if i am going to buy a $500K lot and membership!
the one thing that saves their ability to fly in ALL THE TIME regardless of crummy WX (they could put in an ILS but now don't have to!) is the new
WAAS gps nav with vertical guidance and no ground based nav facilities!
wish i could afford one if only for the appreciation.
