Great images, great memories! Thank you for posting.

What types of cameras have you used?

Thanks Whale-ista. The older ones are with a Nikon F5 (film), the newer ones (digital) with a Nikon D70. The underwater shots are with a Fuji S2-Pro in a Subal housing.

Ken,

I love all of your photos. The old Bahia pics made my heart happy, then sad at the same time. It wasn't that long ago, but the change is immense. I miss the town and the simple, quiet, empty streets.

In your Mulege photo, the guy standing in the door looks familiar for some reason. I can't recall his name, and I'm driving Dern crazy trying to jog his brain too. A photographer, a wild man, drove a van, friends with a pilot or a pilot himself, passed away now.....It's going to bug me till I remember his name.

Thank you again.
P>*)))>{

ps. Your campfires look....fun.;D

on edit: Man, this is really bothering me. He had a one word nickname. He visited bahia a lot. It's on the tip of my tongue...the last time I saw him was at the Laguna Chapala turn off, a Score race, camping out for the night, multiple cameras around his neck....argh!

Thanks so much Paulina. Don't exactly know how this got started but it was fun. Just looking through some old photos....

The guy standing in the door of Nancy's in Mulege is Mike Neeser, an old friend of mine. He is a pilot (owned a beautiful Seneca) and we made several Baja flying trips together. I don't think he is the guy you are thinking of, Mike is still on this side of the sod. Again, thanks, these brought back a lot of good memories for me.....++Ken++

Ken,

It just now popped into my head, your friend in the photo, Mike Neeser reminded me of Killer Kane. Did you know him?

It only took me three weeks or so to remember his name, this getting old stuff is for the birds.

Take the graded road northeast from Laguna Chapala (Hwy. 1) for 13 miles...



... Or, (as mentioned above) head south from Gonzaga Bay 23 miles.
