I've never done the drive before, am traveling alone so I'm looking for a caravan to tag along with. I'm headed to La Ventana (Near La Paz) but if
your going further that will work fine and I'll just drop out at La Paz. Not sure how long I'll be staying, probably about a month, so I'll find a
return caravan there. Will be driving a newer reliable full sized van.

Pompano,
Sounds good. I'll keep you posted as to my exact time of departure when it gets closer.

Crossing Thurs night 28th.
Stay at cheap hotel and order some room service
, up as early as possible and a
speed run down to S. Rosalia. Going to be a long hard day. Fish 1 day and turn around and go home.
Probably leave the same day after fishing and try for G. Negro.
Ensenada the next day and then home.
You're welcome to try and keep up with me if you want.

Pompano,
There is the possibility that, due to a storm moving in, I may need to delay my crossing a few days which would have me crossing on the 28th. I'm not
locked in to crossing at TJ so I might be able to join you. I was unable to obtain my FMT in advance so I will need to get it at the border as well
as changing money. I have a new reliable truck with camper and boat. I'll keep you posted. Rich
