If you take off the brand new set of all terrain tires from your recently purchased dream 4 by 4, and replaced them with a set of extreme rock
crawlers, that are noisy as hell on the pavement that you drive on 98% of the time, when not in
Baja...................................................................................
If you recognize David K's mothers bathing suit at a garage sale in Oceanside, Ca........................................................
you are probably a Baja Nomad!

you're a bajanomad, etc., etc.
If on the drive home your kid asks you:
'hey, why don't we just live here, dad'
- and you can't come up with a convincing answer.

....if your over-valued California townhouse still has bare concrete floors where you removed the original carpet 12 years ago when you bought it ,
because you'd much rather spend the money on stuff like your Baja septic system
and
you bought David K's mother's bathing suit at a garage sale in Oceanside...

You may be a Baja Nomad if you are still saving un-used Amigos de Baja stickers that you don't want to put on your truck because you may sell it some
day.

All of the Above...Yur' a Baja Nomad...
...If your avatar is a braying burro...you might be a Baja Nomad.
If you find yourself drifting off to 'Baja Time' during the Superbowl...you might be a Baja Nomad.
If all your vehicles and those of your friends have been 'branded' with BAJA TIME stickers...you might be a Baja Nomad.

Yeah...I got the new ProComp Xtreme AT's (LT325/65R18) mounted up and ready to go...I'm a Baja Nomad!

GUILTY <*)))><
Today while in town I needed quarters for the parking meter. The ashtray in the truck is full of pesos, sea shells and a green plastic ninja that I
found on the beach in Tortuga Bay. I checked in my wallet and there are more peso notes than greenbacks in there.
This is a fun thread.

You Guys!!!
YOU might be a Baja Nomad IF the ONLY surfing you do is to Baja web sites on the Internet!
Baja Nomad getting 95% of your time, on the net!

If you absent-mindedly say "Gracias" after ordering your fish taco at Rubios...you might be a Baja Nomad.
If your yard is "decorated" with rocks from the shore of Concepcion bay, the Rumeroso quartz mine, sulpher mines, the "smooth round stones of La
Gringa" a TON of white granite from Guadalupe Canyon, a bashed in, shot-up bucket from an abandoned rancho near Guerrero Negro, a rusty enamal coffee
cup from Agua Verde, and pottery shards from the Pai Pai village of Santa Catarina.....you just might be a Baja Nomad.
If you get "tire envy" when you see a rig with bigger tires than yours...You just might be a Baja Nomad.

if every fish taco stateside is instantly compared to the taco lady next to Lizzeth and found wanting.
if you have a special place in your closet for baja t-shirts.
if after a long trip to la otra lado you come home to the kids that need your attention, a wife that demands your attention, a business/job that needs
your attention but the very first thing you do is carefully clean your rods, reels and tackle.
if every time you get up before dawn, you get your coffee and go outside to watch the sky lighten and you wonder if the panga fleet has any customers
today and if they're heading out to make bait.
if every time you tune into the weather channel you wonder why they cut all weather symbols off below the border and why don't they predict something
meaningful like the wind patterns in the SOC?

I might have been a Baja Nomad for a long time -- on one memorable driving trip to Mulege, when I found out the peso was about 3300 to one I stopped
to change money with the Chinaman in Calexico, bought over a million pesos just for kicks. Part of that trip I wish I could take back -- the part
where, out of habit, I put my change in the Cruz Rojo cups -- it was much later that I figured out it was negative money; a full cup of coins would
get you maybe a nickle.

...if you want to tip in the US for excellent service with pesos, because they are so much prettier than dollars, and more fun to spend...
