26 miles paved.

Last report posted said only 17 dirt miles left and some of that was graded for new pavement.

No kidding... and the new highway alignment misses Coco's Corner going west of there by about a mile... very sad. (also will destroy the El Camino Real in that section)

That is what we are talking about... The Puertecitos south to Gonzaga ('Coast Road', Mex #5) is over half paved, or as you are going from Gonzaga north to Puertecitos.

Wow, I thought progress was supposed to be slow....very fortunate to have made the Feb/Mar trip on the dirt.

How is Coco doing? I may have missed the thread....
