Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

not this angle of it. Limited water being used to create desert tomato crops with little money going back to the workers or to those whose crops were
robbed of the water they needed.

Cap, most of those golf course, and all the resorts, are running on RO seawater. It's still stunningly wastefull, but that's what Cabo runs on.

hola,there is a large pipe that run's from east of the el pres. hotel,at the estero all the way to cabo and most of the corraidar is hooked to it,,5/6
years ago they said any new builder will have to do RO,,in 78 I hooked into the pipe and had all the fresh water,I could ever wish for camping on the
beach off the old road, about 2 mile's west of hotel pamilla,,then, your girlfriend could run around topless and damn near a fish a cast,,,but water
is becoming scrace,fast and la paz is running on empty,the res. (fair lady) is really, too small and the water plan for that area...none, worry about
water,not today !! K&T
