thank you for the update
sounds like the situation near Cataviña- car found, not the person. Sigh...

Whalista, that's km 66 south of San Felipe.... east side, not Cataviña (so I read into it). This heat, it's a recovery effort.
I don't have a BUCKET LIST, but I do have a F***- IT LIST a mile long!

Larry's truck was found south of San Felipe near Km 66 by the owner of Campo El Conquistador. The truck was off of the road a ways and stuck in the
sand. The truck was intact, things still in the back and the keys were there outside the truck. There is, at this time, no sign of Larry. The owner of
the Campo said that ATVs are needed to search the area so locals are trying to get a search together for tomorrow. We do not know how long the truck
has been there. Please keep Larry and his family in your thoughts and prayers. I will let you know if there is any additional information.
Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

Still searching. Strange developments.
Here is Kats blog today
Larry has not been found yet, although his truck was found at Km 66 near Puertecitos and the tailgate had been stolen. I followed a truck this
morning with a strange looking tailgate, which looked as though it had been recently painted, but not plain paint. I was close enough to the back, to
notice it had been sort of beaten in on the left side to fit. I lost them when a car pulled out in front of me and they sped off. My theory is and
it’s simply my opinion – he may have ran out of gas and not necessarily near Puertecitos. The photo of his truck, which was not there when Larry
first went missing and that area was already searched, seemed to be stuck and there were stolen items in the back when found. If he ran out of gas,
he may have started walking or someone stole his truck with him in it. It’s more or less looking for a needle in a haystack

Yes, that is correct. I'm not sure how Kat got the idea that the tailgate was stolen. Photos of the truck clearly show the Dodge Tailgate in the back
of he truck along with all of the junk that Larry was reported to have in the back. Also, all of his things were in the cab and the keys were outside
of the truck. Still no Larry. There was a plan for members of the community to head south to look for him today.

From TALK BAJA.
This was in a post on San Felipe Chatter about the search for Larry. By ---------------: We went to the campo where his truck was found and then split
up. We drove up the beach, and into the next campo (Javier owns it); he did see Larry and gave him water, he says, in the last days of June. He said
the feds were there 2 days ago. My question is why did it take them so long to question Javier? He (Javier) seemed to think he'd been up all night as
the sun was just coming over the horizon. He didn't know which way he came from but assumed he had people down the beach. His theory is he walked back
to his truck and was so hot he went in the sea and, well, it's just a theory. Javier did know Larry was from El Dorado and had a son in the states. We
searched for about 4 hours. The tracks where the rig was pulled out from showed the truck in between the houses and it's a very long walk to the next
campo (almost 2 miles).

No, I am afraid that there is now news whatsoever. The police have processed and impounded the truck. There has been no sighting, no news. It is a
very sad thing.
