WOW....it's blowin' "Lickity Splittly" here. Warm too.
Now....some of you know, some don't, about the origen of that term above.
Enjoy one of my favorites from Tom Waits and The Eagles:

God Bless Senor Blanco!
The mechanic, Marcos Blanco, showed up as promised, removed the radiator, took it back to his shop, and returned within 3 hours with all repairs done.
All for $100 (bargain at 3 times the price). We are now mobile again and will linger a while to see what a BOLA is.
And many thanks to you Nomads who offered helpful suggestions.

I second the recommendation for China's for a taco stand. Casa del Sol or Alejandrina's are decent for a larger meal. Sailflow shows the winds
quieting down on Wednesday, if your around that long. btw los Vientos does mean wind so what were you expecting???

Man-O-Man.....you guys are really lost. You're in the middle of TJ and the BOLA is the Culture Center.
Yep......lost......and confused.

You missed us by two days.
Glad to hear that you got your repairs done quickly.
Don't miss out on the museum. You might also check on the local art show, although it may have already ended by the time of this post.
Have a safe drive home. There are way too many cows on the road right now.

ps. regarding the wind, there's a reason why that resort is called "Los Vientos". The winds are totally different for those of us who reside south of
town.

Well....count your lucky stars!
I'd rather be broken down there at BoLA than in California!
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I had carb trouble with my jeep at BOLA and Marcos rebuilt in 2hrs and charged $50.00. He is also a fishing guide and have gone out with him to chase
yellowtail a couple of times. REAL NICE GUY!

Also, it's fun to mess around in the estuary down there when the water is coming in or out. |
Is that still true? I heard that the access to non-residents had been closed definitevely. Oh wait ... we're talking about Mexico, aren't we?
