Congrats!!! We are anxiously awaiting the day when we can spend more than a month at a time in Baja. We got our dirt, so now it's time to make things
happen. 3 or 4 more years and it's all good!!
Disfruta!!!

Ah Legz, the eternal voice of reason! You are right of course, poop could happen still. A few pointers from you helped more than a little, and I think it is a done deal.
As a matter of fact, the first Tundra bed of essentials for La Paz are heading for La Mision about 10pm tonight!!

Do you need any help?

La Mision is between Rosarito and Ensenada. If you know where La Fonda is, I am in the ejido above the river just south. Actually the real big stuff
is going into storage, but thanks. Mainly fishing gear, a virtual truck load, some tools for car and boat service, and my computer and home
electronics. If I run out of time or room, I promise a U2U! Oh, can't forget the wife's warmer clothes and a few boxes of shoes! It is really going to
cool off in La Paz this winter!!!

Congrats Bajabass! I wished that I could retire in La Paz, but instead, I go there 10 times a year from OC, California. My wife won't have any part
of Mexico. As you know, it takes two to tango if you want to live in Baja.
Just got back last night. Man, it's warm in La Paz.
Tip for those of you who spend lots of money making calls from Baja to USA. USE SKYPE. My wife and I corresponded for an hour every day on the Skype
to Skype internet video calling feature. It's free! I go to internet cafe's and use their free WiFi for the required internet connection for my
laptop. Calling any USA phone from Baja on Skype (VoIP) costs less than $.02 USD per minute! I put in $20 USD in my Skype account a month and a half
ago and my account balance is only down to $16.23 USD today.

MitchMan is right ... we talk to Poland and England and States and Brazil and all for free. We have never even deposted a cent into skype. The
cennection is perfect, it sounds as if the person you are talking to is next door.
BjaBass: yours is indeed a fantastic story and we all look forward to meeting you. Congrats !!

To all who posted on this thread, Gracias Amigos & Amigas! Time to haul another load south! Shari, save some sushi for me, PLEASE! Pompano, you, I, co-pilot,
and Dra. BajaBass need to go to Ray's, on me! Wiley, who are you calling a old
Bozo and a sorry butt??? NOT, I am the luckiest Bozo around!!
Russ, if you are headed for Laguna, stop by up here in Orange and say hello. Easier than me driving out that road to your house! My wife has family in San Bruno, so I will end up there, hopefully when the jurel
are biting north of San Marcos!

Well friends, seems a major SNAFU ( $$$$ ), caused a delay in my migration!  Things SEEM to be back on track, with a deal done at the end of November. Traded in the 09 Tundra yesterday, for a much less expensive 06 Tundra
4x4 Double Cab, only 44k miles, and clean! I had a hard time finding a white one, and had to drive to Toyota Of Escondido to get it. My 09 already had
30k on her, and needed new tires. All those trips to La Mision were adding up!
I have not seen Dra. Bajabass for almost 4 1/2 months now, and I'm really looking forward to her visit here for the week before turkey day. Then I fly
to La Paz T-Day for 4 days! First time to spend a night in a house I've
been paying rent on for 5 months now.
Seems most of my wife's family have had vacations in La Paz now, and 1 sister-in-law has already transferred her nursing job to Cabo. another is in
La Paz now, job and apartment hunting. I love my wife's family, but I really hope my family doesn't decide to join us also.
So, 4 days in La Paz, fly home and pick up the not so big check, load the truck and adios!!! With any luck, I'll get to hang the Christmas lights
around the house and pool!!! 
Keep your eyes on the road, and your hands upon the wheel!

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

Hey come on down!
It took us 6 business garage sales and 4 personal, but we got rid of most of it and what we didnt, went to good causes.
One thing I can tell you for sure.................you will never miss a single item!
Another thing I will tell you for sure....it doesnt take very long to build up your collection again.
Felicidades!

I've unloaded most items not traveling south. I will have a truck full of rods, reels, tackle boxes, and a little boat being drug behind! Oh, and
Winston, The Baja Collie!!
