Happy Valentine's Day and rain rain rain


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO EVERYONE and happy anniversary to Blanca and Les...we survived the 7 year itch! Today is our 7th anniversary and we started celebrating last night with homemade strawberry margaritas


:bounce::bounce:

Now for the weather report:


last night the Earth shook as lightning and thunder raged through La Bocana ..... the rain continued to pour this morning. Right now, the sky is blue and the ocean is calm. One would never in a million years think that it had been so radically bad earlier on.

Who else saw this rain?

Cool about the rain, and from GK`s pic it looks like La Paz got a good hit. Now have to brag that on Feb. 12th, my wife and I celebrated our 38th anniversary at the quaint little digs at the Marriott resort in Palm Desert. Had to jump in a boat to go from the lobby to where we wanted to eat. Beautiful place but I`m ready for my Baja fix!!

No rain at all here yesterday (at La Aguja), but we could see the rain clouds off to the east and figured that the highway and La Paz were getting dumped on.

This morning, however, we're having a gentle steady rain.

and Happy Anniversary Blanca and Les!!

From up here. Blanca, it looks like you are about to get drenched again!

Drove from Loreto to La Purisma and back to Ciudad Insurgentes, poured all the way. Absolute mud hole on all detours. Rained hard again during the night, with lots of lightning. Then sprinkled this morning on drive to La Paz. Currently sunny here with some clouds.

Rain stopped around 9:30 this morning - now we have beautiful blue skies with a few scattered clouds - though there are bigger clouds off to the east pretty much like yesterday.

Neat pic!

Dumped buckets yesterday in La Ribera. Couldn't get into/out of town in any direction without driving through lakes. Quite impressive.

My phone didn't pick up the true darkness, but it was impressive here too.
