Yeah, I had a great time. After looking at the crowds there and on some of the other beaches, I didn't think there were that many people in Mulege!
Maybe they came up from Loreto! 
The locals put out some pretty amazing cooking off their campfires and it's like everyone is one big family (maybe they were, I never did get the
relationships straight ).
I just wish I had gotten some pictures. Unfourtunately the camera battery decided to refuse a charge at that time & I didn't get a new one until
after everyone left. I'll be ready next year.
There were vendors walking/driving through during the day selling every thing from water to ice cream to fire wood to trinkets, kids playing in the
water, adults out fishing or chasing down their inflatable boats, blowing across the beach (the wind was a little problem), or just sitting around
talking or playing instruments. Kite flying was also very popular, I broke out one of my stunt kites and had a ball teaching the kids how to fly it.
Crash landings were the order of the day 
Unlike the tourist RV parks, you didn't have to have someone walking around, enforcing a "quiet time" in the evening. Everyone just shut up around 11
pm. And Mama and her family kept the outhouses clean and the trash hauled out. That was 50 pesos/day well spent.
It'll be a real loss if they do develop Playa Requeson and the surounding hillsides.

Panga
The pics have to be under 50 kb. I use Photoshop and depending on the photo, I sometimes have to shrink it twice to post. Other's have better/easier
programs to shrink the photos.

You're improving. Set your pixel size to 400X600 or 600X800 and you should be ok.

On Edit: Sorry about that, I'm in the Wilds of PA and my Aircard keeps dropping out.

Very nice! I am a slow learner. Can you tell me what you did to make it larger?

OK, dumb question. You told me a few posts back. I need to get my wife to explain it. Thanks very much for the help. The location is Punta
Pulpito.

You have to have software that will let you set the pixel size and resolution, both of which control file size.
I used Adobe Photoshop Elements to resize your photo. It probably would have come out clearer if I had been using the original photo.
I also could have used Arcsoft Photostudio, the software that came with my Canon Rebel EOS, but I like the user interface in Elements better. It has a
button labeled "Save for Internet" which shows the original and the suggested size and resolution changes side by side. Then you can accept the
suggested parameters or play around with them until you get what you want.

Now you're getting the hang of it!!
You've got your width pixels set at 436, you can go up to 600 and still fit in the frame if you want as long as the file size doesn't creep up over
the 50k limit (you're at 29k with this picture right now).
What software are you using?
BTY, it looks like that guy ran across a hungry Orca!!
