Doney's restaurant
Does anybody have any idea of how to get the phone number for Doney's Restaurante In Muluge? or maybe a link or something? I'm pretty certain I lost
my wallet there with a few hundred in it, along with everything else, and I can't seem to find anything other than numbers for Doney's tacos. It's
probably hopeless, but feel like trying anyways, because now I'm broke as dirt!

jeremias,
I am not defending the restaurant as i don't know the owners or the staff. But in our experience, 9 out of 10 times a customers comes back saying they
are "absolutely sure" they left their wallet, sunglasses, or phone here, later call back saying they found it.

I wish I could say that, but the car and everything else was turned inside out. The last time i saw it was paying the bill there, we passed out
nearby, woke up and I was unable to find it.

Hola jeremias,
mulegejim is right, I live in Coyote Bay..about 18 miles from Doney's..and it so happens I am going to town later this morning to deliver a faulty
dingy engine to a mechanic. Doney's is close, so I will stop and talk to owner, Mely, about your wallet.
Hope it turns out for the best...glad to help.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

There is yet another (obvious) possibility.

Hola again, jeremias...
Just got back from Mulege. I stopped and talked with Mely's wife..he was in Santa Rosalia. She said no wallets have been found....but she looked
around in thier Lost/Found stuff anyway....lots of clothes, etc..but no wallet.
Sorry I couldn't help much, amigo, but at least you know Mely does not have it waiting for you...good luck with the search.
Roger/Pompano
p.s. edit to add: Take heart though...good things happen. Almost 30 years ago I awoke at mi Coyote Bay casa, went to the kitchen to make coffee..and
found my wallet clipped to the message board on the kitchen door. Along with a note from one of Don Johnson's waiters at the Serinadad Hotel saying I
had left it on my dinner table the night before during a Roast Pig fiesta. A great guy named Manuel Cuesta Drew who remains one of my good Mulege
amigos today.
That wallet had over $1300 USD in it...same amount as it had when I left it behind. Manuel, being the fellow he is, refused any reward when I went
to see him. But good things happen to good people..and I found ways to thank him over the unsueing years. My reward was found in
his friendship.
Hope you made the same kind of friends...and get that wallet back.

thanks so much Pompano, it's very much appreciated.  The only other place i
was at before it got lost was a campground at San ignacio at the lagoon. I did throw my clothes down before showering, so that's another possibility.
Could there be a phone at that place? Thanks for all the help!

I lost my passport at Hacienda Santa Veronica a couple of years ago. Looked everywhere, asked around, etc. Did the same thing when I returned from a
2 week dirt bike trip, no luck. Crossing the border wasn't too bad, because the passport rule wasn't really being enforced yet. Unpacking and
stowing my gear back home, guess what I found in my small first aid kit? A passport I had stashed there in a drunken moment. I hardly ever lose
anything, but I misplace tons of merde.

Rule Number One. stash your wallet/Docs when you start drinkin or go out. In my vehicles I always have one place where I put them! Except
sometimes? One place and in the am. there they are. Hopefully! Hope you
didn't drop it between car and tacos; Semana Santa would have been a Lottery chip!? Hope you find it in your First Aid pack or write it off to
experience.  Suerte Tio

Thanks, I know that getting my wallet and hundred bills is beyond a long shot, but figured I'd try my best anyways. Thanks for the number Shari, I'll
give it a try. I can't recall the name of the campground, but it was right on the lagoon.

Update.....a crazy one at that..... My wallet was turned into the police at Guerrero Negro who notified the consulate , who then contacted my family.
I got the number of somebody, not sure if maybe it's a cop, but at any rate he happens to be driving up to Ensenada and meeting me tomorrow. And from
what I gather is that there is money still inside! wowww!

yeah, guy was super cool. Met me in Ensenada, and everything was there. I gave my new friend Gustavo a 100 bill for his trouble and he was happy.
Thanks Gustavo from Guerrero Negro!

Wow, that is a great wallet story!
I recently lost my wallet while vacationing in Maui. I have a list of emergency phone numbers in there. My wife received a phone call on her cell
phone that my wallet had been found in a parking lot.
I retreived my wallet and everything was there.
Seems like there are some really fine people around this world, for sure!
