For sure, Oly, Your grandson is one lucky kid. Baja is such a great place to be a kid. Glad I got to do some of my growing up here, glad my kid got
the same experinse and my grandkids, well, they are homegrown Baja California kids, what a great place to be a kid.

For sure Eli,
like with a lot of kids, Christian has a broken home. He spends time with Grampa & Gramma, gets lots of love and appreciates the time he spends
outdoors with us. When we are in the states he talks and talks about Baja, the birds and other animals here and the people. Instead of just looking
he sees the life all around him.

Another fine example of great Grandparents! Five Stars for the BigOly's
My two older Grand kids.....and my youngest son...are well seasoned Baja kids. I think....Baja was (and is) the biggest impact in their lives.
I'm from a broken home too...may I use that cool pool?

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
