How many Nomads have you met?

I would have to ask David K, he always reminds me who I've met. He has the best memory for places, dates and faces.

Now Bob H., you might have started an idea here. It might be kind of fun to do a printout of current members, then as you meet them have them sign off by their names. Carrying the paper around might be a chore but I image someone will sort it out and start a little contest. Might be fun to put in $5.00 dollars each and then set a year from the date and have a meeting place by the beach with another buy in of $20.00 dollars for BBQ, a 3 bottle of beer or 3 glasses of wine with all the soda and tea you can drink. Would just need a place that a lot of people could get to. Make it where you have to send in your money up front and once in no refunds, as it is too hard to do a meeting party without enough money up front. Just sometime to think about and maybe some of the lucky ones that are retired already could put the wheels in motion. Spin the wheel and see where it lands and the winner is?????

1 Bajacactus

ditto Debra!(what Whistler said)

Don't know if this counts

But the first person I met was thru the amigos board for lunch at Cien Años in Tijuana was Lorenzo de Baja, LdB, then it was the people that attended the first David K's (Dr. Drip)Viva Baja party in 2000 and then Amo and David in Rosarito when I was working a very hard job covering up semi naked girls by the pool.

Glenn, how soon we forget.........We did meet at, I think it was BBBB #1? I also didn't remember until I saw pictures. There were so many people it has taken me these 6 year. to remeet or put it together. 84 people showed up the the BBBB #1 so add those.

Sally, sorry, as I said just making a quick list from my aging memory wasn't the best way to do it, I missed many people, including you, sorry girlfriend!

a few more I remembered this morning.........

Desert Rat (HOW ON EARTH COULD I FOR GET HIM?! What a great time we had on the (what was it? 11 day trip?)

Baja Boy
Hot Shotchot (spelling?)
Bob Z or is it "A" from AZ.
Ken Cooke
David A. and Yvonne (dang I hope she doesn't see this list!)

bajaguy
bajababe (or is it bajablonde?)
hose a
minnow
natalie ann

very short list

I do not think you two have met...?

Here's Glenn ('Whistler') at Viva Baja #2 (wearing watch):

and


Here's Debra (sitting behind Paulina, aka 'P' on Nomad) at Camp Gecko in 2002:


and at Montevideo:

Glenn, I STAND CORRECTED I guess we have talked so often and I've seen your picture, I fell I DO know you........we'll have to take care of that soon! Are you down at your Baja Casa? I'm thinking about taking a trip to Mulege when I get back from the book signing. I'll stop by and get that glich take care of! As far as "unforgetable" Yeah, I can be a REAL RIOT!

Jeeeeezzzzus. Debra. Boo someone for putting their cigarette butts out on the beach and they will forever call you Mean-O. For your information that big long sand thing down by the waters edge is not an ash tray, and I hate smokers who throw their buts where ever they damn well please.:moon:

My list would be long as I went to a David K party and M's BBBB bash at Celito Lindo. What is more important to me though is that I have met some very close friends over the years thanks to this board and Amigo's. Nomads certainly is a connecting point to stay in touch with people who are born to wander, as well as a hub of valuable information. Saludos all.

Sylens, you forgot Lizard Lips. So you can add one more to your growing list. We are setting up another outing at Casa Mar in June, are you in?

So far have only met
Martin
Shari
KurtG

But hope to meet several more this summer down south.

Diane

OK, no sweat. I'll get the story straight from now on. I listened to the wrong person I guess. I still love you. Even more now that I know you are a conscientious smoker. Now quit calling me Mean-O.

Sylens

It's bajablonde....AND she is a bajababe!!!

How many Nomads have you met?

We met this bueno Nomad the other day...again.

We were pleased to have 'Don Jorge' (seated in rear) stop by for a visit at Coyote Bay. My other guests include Randy, a friend (Nomad lurker) from Minnesota , and in front...another old friend and fellow Nomad...'aquaholic.' Muchas gracias, amigos.

Plus I met Al G last night at the Serindad..this has been a good week for Nomad sightings!

bajaguy, thanks for the info about bajablonde.

Lizard Lips y esposa Pat at Viva Baja #3... good people!

Hmmmm, memories.. Met all these wonderful folks on a couple of trips. I have met others but I have a bad memory with names. If you remember me, remind me but the one thing I can say is that Baja Nomads are cool people.

David K and (David's Chris and Sarah)
Debra
Mike and Maryan H

None. But I'm looking forward to it.

Deb, It was Me No. Thats how the Mexicans say Minnow. Get it.

We have only met once for a short time, but I am beginning to feel like we are married.

Now if I can just get you to quit smoking.

[Edited on 1-5-2007 by Minnow]

Yeah Tom, I got "it" )" Me No" way back "then". forgive me? I changed it to MeanO...........make you a deal? I'll quit smoking when you quit bit**ing, Deal? In the mean time, how's about if we just play nice, or take it to U2 K? Let's not bother these nice people with our "marriage" OR, better yet, you show up to the booksigning and you and I can take it "outside", to the pool" we can both have a rant! You can tell me that I have "no political views" I can throw you into the pool (or my butts)

Debra, I am one who has received more than my share of attacks or worse by Me No Tom... I am pleasantly surprised to find that this is a new, kindler, gentler Minnow...

So, if this is true: "I'll quit smoking when you quit bit**ing, Deal?" You might start planning on using the patch or chewing gum!!

Tom, no more bit**ing now!!!

Just for fun....

I got this sign via email today, making me think of this post. Sorry to go semi off topic. Besides the chat regarding the tossing of butts, there are cigarettes in baja as well as c-ckroaches, so it sorta fits.....

edit: Darned typo!
