Cool deal Tim. For the first few years we were at San Nicolas I could always describe my fishing to a "traveler in the know" as Gene Kira fishing. We had a 12' Gregor and an old 9.9 Honda, and right on down to the orange and gold 4 1/2" jointed Rebel FasTracs. That was fun fishin.

When are you going to be in Bahia Asuncion?

McFez I went and got this book because of your recommendation. Thanks for that. I seen some of the books go as high as $223.00

I was going to give it to Tim as a Christmas present but was too excited. I broke down.

Here's what is say's on the back of the front cover:

Dec 94 Eric and Kris - The Baja Bug has biten you well - so may all of your Baja trips be the best - Neil

And then there was this piece of paper tucked inside and it say:

Dear Petersen's...I guess I could have gotten this to you all sooner. However as I get older it takes longer (which could be better). Regardless, Merry Christmas and Baja New Year....signed Batray.

Vgabndo we are just waiting for this house to sell and then we will pull the pin.

Diane there is still some good deals out there for a used one. You Amazon has some smoking deals from looking this morning.

We have 3 St Joesph statues buried up side down in this yard. What more can I do? I had to plant the second one because of the prayer Tim performed on the first one. Went like this....

Holy St Joesph you ain't no gnome, get off you a$$ and sell our home.

Hey Tim.....If you send that book to me, I'll get a Kira autograph in there for you as well. Maybe Abe Lincoln's too, space permitting.
