Lurking no more
Hi Nomads, my first post! I have been lurking for about a year and a half. I COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO POST! A second email address by my wife,
plus being a computer idiot was my downfall. I enjoy most the baja trip reports. When I first enter this site, I read a report of freediving south of
Enesanada in the early 1950's. What a great story, what a great time it must of been. I will be making my 32 trip down in June, with my 14 year old
daughter, for about 24 days, camping on the east cape. I have been enjoying La Ventana the most, since Ensenada de Muertos have been changed to Bay of
Dreams. I camped there for 25 years. I have never flown down, always drive with some kind of boat for fishing , surfing, and diving. More posts on the
way, keep up the trip reports. Ron Perry, 22ft Bayrunner CC, baja fool

Hi Ron,
How is La Ventana in the summer ?
I hear it's not as crowded as winter and inhabited mostly by weekend or week-long mainland and Baja mexicans ???
They put in a third bathhouse last summer - brand new !
We visited Los Muertos and to the old Punta Arena Hotel in February. Los Muertos is pretty gucci but they still let us launch our boat - no problem.
That bay is absolutely georgeous.
The pangeros at the old hotel were fishing the inshore reefs and came back with hundreds of pargo.
I hear the old hotel grounds have also been purchased by the Los Muertos developers. They have a few RV's set-up there and are using the airstrip on
the road in towards the old hotel.

I'm also a new member. Been lurking for a few weeks. I was going to buy a place in Puerto Penasco but after reading this forum along with my own
personal gut feeling I decided to hold off. There is alot more of Mexico to explore first!
Great board! Look forward to becoming apart of the community.

Maybe there should be a "newbie" thread, huh?
Yes, welcome to Steve also!

Dear Braulio
please, don't be too ironic or sarcastic and you should cover up that scary smile - you are going to scare off the fresh meat.
