Definatley God and Mr. Gomez.

I was so inspired by the book that I planned a trip to see this place, so I jumped into my little Toyota and headed down that 16 mile dirt road to the coast of La Bocana. Funny, weve all seen the turnoff for it, I had never gone there being too busy heading to San Quintin or Erindira.

I read the last chapter of the book lying on the grass near the river/lagoon just south of the store. I met with Sergio Gomez moments later and after some chit chat I secured a lot and began building my new Baja home.

Eventually I sold that home to a dear friend and neighbor from my Campo in Playa Hermosa and turned a tidy little profit for my efforts. Believe me, I think about that experiance all the time. The sunsets lasted forever...
