Baja Vida told me about "Amigos" so I went there, got registered and wrote a really long and (in my opinion) a great soliloquy on some of my memories.
That was the weekend it disappeared... along with my lengthy treatise.
So, if about 12 hours counts, I too was one.
Baja Arriba!!

Yes, I was an Amigo.
I even developed a T shirt with Earl's permission---The message---
"Amigo's de Baja, Friends Helping Friends."
Gave a few away at Keri's first Book Signing.
If you run into Earl just ask him what a headache running a board is AND then thank Doug as I am now doing.
THANKS DOUG!!!!

So was I. But the bitterness took it down. nomads can get like that too, but when you think about it, it's always the same two or three folks.
Earle posted a lengthy report on Bahia de Los Angeles a month or so back on Fred's board. I hope he and Eric and Trish are all doing well.
Thanks too to Doug for all his efforts.

I plead guilty to cluttering the bandwidth of that board with long-winded and obtuse narratives. One or two may actually have been funny (at least to
me). Wish I could remember what they were about.

I posted a little at the end of the Amigos era. And well I bet it is a pain to run one of these boards, and of course I never stop thanking Doug for
giving us a place to land when Amigos folded.

That was when I found out there were others
interested in Baja besides just me These boards are a veritable wealth of
information based on tourists visits here. With some factual information thrown in every once in a while for good measure.
As far as the few who clutter and complain about certain things, wouldn't it all be just peachy if everyone looked the same, thought the same, acted
the same?
Wait just a ding danged minute here, that's BOLA, Los Barriles and Orange County already!!
For real stories and information, I would pick the ones from those who don't hang out in the same enclaves ever year! Spicier to say the least and
this board is about Baja after all! Nomads Board, not Nomads Bored.

I posted for what seemed like eons on that board. It was great but got a little sour at the end with the censorship getting a bit one sided in my
opinion.
It's not easy to run and moderate a board, especially a very popular one, so I respected their right to run it the way they saw fit and moved over
here when there were only 10-15 users.
I had a great time with folks on Amigos and have made some wonderful friends from it.

My first post on the old Amigos board was in the spring of 1998....a question regarding Tajo Canyon. My first response was from Neal Johns, along
with an invitation to his Desert Explorers outing.
He was trolling for wives-in-waiting way back then....

Yes, me too. That board was a lot of fun. I miss El Surfo Loco too. He was pretty entertaining, like JR on steroids. 
Like this great board it gave one a little taste when you were stuck in the northlands at work or whatever. Not that I would ever waste taxpayers'
money surfing Baja Nomad.
22 Mondays and counting to retirement on the beach. It's getting hard to stay focused.....
No b-tchin\' in the Baja.
