Thanks Nomads In La Paz

bajabass - 6-3-2010 at 02:28 PM

I just finished a quick four day trip to La Paz this past Friday through Monday. Flew in from TJ on Friday, and the Volaris flight was comfy and punctual. I was able to spend 3 days scouting rentals, homes, and lots. I found a great rental for Mrs. Dra. Bajabass, who will be starting work for IMSS in La Paz very soon. I had the pleasure of meeting several Nomads who did nothing other than make me feel completely at home, and among friends. :yes: Longlegsinlapaz, Kate, Jesse, Old Lady, Roaminthroughbaja, along with everybody I met at a great party thrown by Old Lady, a huge Gracias Amigos!!! I am back up north, and I am trying to work, while visions of La Paz, dancing dorado, and Jesse's awesome Tuna Tanake dance through my widely scattered brain. I am much more than eager to get south full time and meet many more neighborly Nomads!!!:bounce:

Good On You, Bajabass!!

Its great fun to read your posts these months and see how your thoughts take form.

You and your wife are making your dreams come true...

Will you be keeping your La Mision place for vacations??? Nice retreat for the summer heat there.

bajabass - 6-3-2010 at 05:39 PM

Gracias Mulegena! Believe me, as soon as I can make it happen. Things are moving really fast. :o Though not fast enough for me. I've only been married to my lovely wife for three years. I don't want her 1000 miles away for very long, YET!

bajabass - 6-3-2010 at 05:45 PM

Oh yeah, I will want to hide from the heat once in a while, and my wife's family all live there. I had planned on living there, but it will still be a vacation place, and my home away from my new home! :?: Many, many great friends in La Mision. I think I'll always have a place there!

noproblemo2 - 6-3-2010 at 06:12 PM

Good for you, good friends are to be cherished as well as family, sounds like you are well on your way again Congrats to you both on your new adventure...

Did she get assigned to La Paz? When we met a few weeks ago on one of her trips she was worried it would be Guerrero Negro :o

bajabass - 6-3-2010 at 08:48 PM

Hey Woo, thanks for making her feel welcome. Gracias Dios, La Paz! GN would not have worked, but she put up a big enough stink to get La Paz. I am looking forward to meeting both of you.

Thanks Kate, we're going to Jesse's for lunch again, soon!

It has been fun.. good luck.. on your move, and everything else..

bajabass - 6-4-2010 at 08:00 AM

It has really just begun. Mrs. Dra. Bajabass has a job, the first goal is reached! I have a buyer "on the hook", so to speak. This business has to sell before I can follow suite and head south. :yes:

Da nada! ;)

BigWooo - 6-5-2010 at 06:15 AM

Congratulations and good luck! I'm sure we'll run into each other soon. We seem to be spending quite a bit of time in La Paz lately.

longlegsinlapaz - 6-5-2010 at 07:11 AM

Wooo, I TOLD you you shoulda been looking for a place closer to La Paz!:lol: Yeah, I know surfing was really high on your priority list! :yes:

bajabass - 6-5-2010 at 07:54 AM

Hey Woo, come over and I'll tow you behind my boat!:biggrin:

bajabass - 6-5-2010 at 01:52 PM

I think we found a good deal, not great, but good. 2br, 2ba, A/C, small pool, 3 mini-splits, alarm, washer, dryer, fridge. Fully stocked and furnished. By stocked I mean all bedclothes, towels, dishes, pots, pans, microwave, coffee maker. Immaculate house a couple years new, hardly lived in. Almost 180 degree ocean, bay, city view from the patio, pool area. In El Centenario, up the hill. Very reasonable rent. We will be putting in tv and internet access.

bajabass - 6-5-2010 at 02:03 PM

Oh, plenty of room to park the boats!!:tumble:

longlegsinlapaz - 6-5-2010 at 06:13 PM

Room to park the boats yes....but NO SECURE OR FENCED area to park them. You park them up there next to the casa & you'll end up giving someone a really nice Christmas & you'll be doing all your fishing from the beach within the first 1-2 weeks!:(:no::(

bajabass - 6-5-2010 at 07:22 PM

:no: I have a little idea for that:light: concrete anchors and big chain:light:

comitan - 6-5-2010 at 07:27 PM

Not chain, heaviest safety cable you can buy.

bajabass - 6-5-2010 at 08:37 PM

Good idea Wiley, thanks! I'll bring a couple big ones down.
