Mood: Have Baja Fever

As the longest active Nomad other than Doug, I have tried to post to create interest and activity. Nomad is almost 24 years old and has done well without updates and easy photo posting until recently. So much goes on at Facebook regarding Baja and that is fine, but it is terrible to find past posts or special categories. That is where a forum like Baja Nomad shines.
Maybe if Doug updates this site, it can blossom again?
Thanks Baja Nomad!

You honestly think it's the medium that's the problem?

Personally, I think it's the disrespectful environment.

A platform upgrade isn't going to change that, and at this point it'd be a waste of effort without a subtantial policy change.

The heyday of BN were the years of JR Baja/Ski Baja.

And he wasn't the most polite person in the World. Lol.

FB, Covid, and people getting old hurt BN. I haven't posted on FB since 2006.

It does take maturity to be respectful and able to ignore insults from those who are not mature. Oh well, I hope to still see trip reports here and historic site discussion.
