Coco
Anyone seen Coco lately? Or where he is at? And how he is doing? Will be in his area in about three weeks.

Your right about that. But only if someone will report back to us that he's there. And a recent comment was he wasn't?????? He loves being gifted
with a bag of oranges for sure.

My last trip to Coco's was in April, and he was in Ensenada at the time (according to his caretaker (foreground)).

After 110,000 mi., the original metal water pump seal...didn't. The Jeep has taken me to Baja several times, so these things are beginning to happen
with greater frequency. Do I want a new Jeep payment? No way!

Wow Ken.....you put bottle water in your jeep? Big wallet? :-)
I hope to see you next Spring at the 2rd Annual Mcfestival
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

The radiator has was emptying itself faster than I could keep it filled. Most of the cooling system was replaced 2 months later.

We were at his place in early September and the caretaker came by while we were hanging out and said he was still in Ensenada.
It was really sad to see his place empty. All the beer cans glittering in the sun and whirling in the wind just isn't the same without him.

I was in BOLA a couple of weeks ago and heard that Coco was indeed back home. Apparently his place was vandalized and he lost his old sign in books.
Don't know about the panties.

Son-in-law, Andy G., spent some time with Coco about ten days ago. Everyone had a fine time. I'll check Andy's Facebook. He might have some photos up.

him to sign and respond but instead he emailed me this email in regards to the post.

Nov., 2006 (Day after Baja 1000 went past)

Josh, Coco, Elizabeth

Roy and David get into the photo thanks to some bikers at Coco's Corner.

Coco shows my entry from January 2005 and the one from this day... 'got baja?'

It was good to see that Coco was doing well.

Coco and Elizabeth on Jan. 2, 2005. Also see http://vivabaja.com/coco

Coco . . .
We stopped by mid-September and the caretaker told us he was in Ensenada for more surgery. He didn't make it sound very good and didn't seem too
confident about him coming back.
If Coco's anything, he's a survivor. I hope to see him later this month but I won't hold my breath.
