Still no gasman.
I would love to sit here all day and look out the windows but my time is running out.
So I guess I leave the money with the caretaker.
I need to go to El Rosario today... and visit Baja Cactus...
Someone their promised me a screaming firetruck ride across the Baja Desert.

Lucky for me!
But I gotta tell you that most of the gringos I see here are much more wierdo to me.
I'm almost embarrassed.
Now I know why the "locals" call it the invasion of the "White walkers".
The are all grey/white haired and a bit sombie-ish.

It looks like you are not using the correct upload size? It should be set to 800 pixels. 150 is thumbnail and 320 is small (what the one above is set
at). 640 is okay and 800 is the full width of Baja Nomad.

You could help me if you can...
What is not boring Chuckie? I'll go find it.
Two flats and a dog bite aren't good enough?
I'm really trying to entertain you all... and for free
And the dog tried for me again today when his mom was walking him. He seems to understand a "rock" when he sees it and kept his distance.
But was waiting for me to drop my guard. Not this time Fido!

I added the tags but still didn't work.

This foto is a bit blurry and I will try and do better.
This is the front yard at my house.
That is an authentic rail from the Old English colony's failed attempt for a rail line.
Seems plans changed after they dropped the Locamotive in the drink when unloading it from a ship to a barge to bring it into the bay.
The plan was to save a lot of rowing that was necessary due to the shallow bay unable to accomdate a large ship.
The rail would have run from the Old Mill, across a jetty that is still there today and is used for a powerline to the anttena volcano.
If the picture was clear enough it was show the remains of the Old Pier.
With no engine the Old English decided to use the rails as pier pilings. They are still there today.
The was a hotel over there called the Old Pier. I was in there once. It was abandoned. But it must have been fun in it's day. The bar was almost as
they left it. Very festive with fish painted on the walls.
It has since been demolished. But the grand staircase is still there. It runs from a high bluff to the sand and bay.
It leads to nowhere now. But at one point it was a stairway to adventure...
It will be there forever but the story is somewhat already lost to time...

Achitect was here and we discuss a plan to draw up a house. Home builder was with him and we decided where to put the septic tank.
Gasman came at 4pm. Said early am.
And the dog tried for me again.
He and his mom came over to help with the gas man. His mom thinks he doesn't like me now. He picks me out even with others around.
I guess he doesn't like my haircut either...

His mom didn't say he hates me.

So he has very good taste in men...

Ok. Time for a 25 minute bumpy ride to town.
A benefit of Berrymex and Driscoll is the 1st portion of the road from the highway is graded and oiled I think. Some hard flat crust.
The produce was getting wrecked by the road so it got fixed for the semis full of berries...
Much more going on now than when I got here in 2005-6.
The areas they farm now with tomato tents where wind blown waste lands that some poor fool tried to dry farm.
Now white tents as far as the eye can see.
A peek inside indicates why. Super lush in there... anything will grow here... in those tents.
