Is there a new tourist booth there? Or is it the building that's been there for a while?

Hi everyone!
Thank you to BajaNomad for letting me back on the board.
I have been lurking daily so I have been following all the action very closely.
It's been a busy couple of years for me and I recently relocated to Everett, Wa. for my carreer with the Boeing Company.
So instead of being near the Baja border I am near the Canada border. So no more quick weekend trips to my fishcamp at SanQ and that hurts a little.
I guess I'll need to fly down from Seatac and rent a baja car.
Everett is an interesting place and it's going through a post logging boom and trying to reinvent itself. The last paper mill closed a few months
after I got here but I think at one time there were several. Still some log rafts coming down the rivers like the old days.
The Boeing plant here is amazing. It is the largest building by volumn in the world. Four major airplanes are built in it. They include the 747, 767,
777, and the new 787. All in one gigatic building. Mind boggling.
Anyway, glad to here that the San Quintin tourist office is open more regularly and I'll start planning a trip there to buy my fishing license for
this year.
For a hotel I recommend Villa San Quintin right off the main highway. Very clean and comfortable with a great restuarant and room service. Fairly
quiet and close to most everything.
I love Jardines restuarant and especially the bar. I've stayed at the hotel a few times and it's ok. Beautiful grounds.
So keep living the dream my fellow Nomads and get all the Baja you possibly can. And if you are lucky like me you will have Baja in your heart and
nothing can ever take that away.
Cheers
Fishbuck

My plans have evolved from considering it to going to San Quitin for sure. Leaving 3-30, back in Orange County on 4-3 or 4-4.
I appreciate all the input regarding food, fishing and things to do. I just spoke to a friend who is retired from CA government service and he has an
abalone farm only 15 minutes north, so we will be touring that. My understanding is that he does it just to help the local economy.
Any continued input is appreciated. This seems so smooth that I think I'll do it more. My wife and I do La Paz every year, which is much more
cosmopolitan. I think I'll do San Quintin as a guys trip for a while.
Thanks again

Are you taking about Ron BajaGringo? He has an interest in Abalone farming out on San Martin Island.
