lack of humor has soured me from this place. I am not bored, scared, self important, dillusional, or argumentative. Life is good, travel and new
experience makes it great! I wish everyone good living.

Fly low, land on roads.

Not to hijack this thread, but this just reminded me of something that happened in Sacramento years ago when streaking was fashionable. I had a rather
nice looking,goofy,barmaid working for me,who at one day decided to streak a bar in Rancho Cordova. When running bareassed naked through that saloon a
customer hollered" hey lady how about a c-cktail ?" and she parked herself at the bar. 10 minutes later, her boyfriend, who had been waiting with the
getaway car at the backdoor, came in to see what happened to his love. Ahhh, the good old days.

On the good side, I got a lot of messages telling me to hang in there and met a few cool people since. I am impressed with your Latin, a man of many
talents it seems... looking forward to hoisting a couple. I hope you are staying out of the heat somewhere.:smug: |
but please do get on line if as you can and check in during your trip. well...........maybe not since its a cabo boys excursion! i pity the rookies!!!
i may or may not make it over to hoist with ya'all. with me its so spur of the moment at times.
and to answer your kind comments - i fancy myself as just an aging drunk (at times) who happens to like flying small dangerous planes to baja and
mexico as often as i can and meeting good peoples IN PERSON FACE TO FACE INSTEAD of relying on the vastness of cyborspace for screening.
so have a blast Cap, wing it safely and i look forward to seeing it all on the website after you've edited out all the good parts to protect the
innocent!

Hey Mike, beeg grand opening of the San Carlos airstrip recently. In the local papers down there. I drove by and the berms are vamonosed, new paint
and even a new windsock. New fencing around it too. Didnt notice any landing lights but didnt really look, either.
Check your contacts.........you may have a new clientele base.

wow! that's some killer news Hook.
i asked the developer to keep me in the know, well guess not.
i'll find what i can.
if you get any links to news local papers or whatever lemme know.
i am very surprised they got it permitted with Guaymas so close.
but $$ talks!!
i better go see what the lot prices are asap.

The "opening" may have been more ceremonial than declaring it open for business. I dont know anything about the development adpects but I do know
there is alot of activity out there.
One of the San Carlos webmasters posted this email address to find out about the availability of the strip. eddie@grupotucson.com or
info@si-sancarlos.com
It's a Grupo Caballero gig, if you are familiar with that outfit. So, there's the deep pockets that it took to re-open it.

thx Hook - yeah i talked with Eddie via email so i now got the skinny.
and of course - Grupo Caballero is the numero uno developer in the area, the old man has been promoting san carlos since 1962 when they 1st planned
the old Posada which is where we started staying there in the early 80s. So he has pull and clout. this is not yet totally officionally open - but
they are close and soon will release lotes sales.
for start its going to be hangar leases. well - that's a start.
i'd live/retire in san carlos in a heart beat if i could get an airpark lot.

Well, then, let's stay in touch as we bought a lot in the Ranchitos last week and will begin constructing SOMETHING shortly; probably the ubiquitous
gringo trailero/palapa/ramada/bodega to start while we consider what else to construct......if anything.

hey man that's cool - i'd do that too, run in another trailer, maybe a park model and slowly build palapa style around it.
is the ranchitos the ones i saw under residential on the si-sancarlos website?

I expect that you saw the Bella Esperanza development. Caballero has been marketing those as "eco-ranchettes". The old joke among the RE agents is
that's a clever marketing term for lots with no utilities out to them yet. They have been for sale for AT LEAST five years. A water main has been run
out close to there but it is not out to the individual lots. No elec. or Carlos Slim lines out there either and of course no municipal sewage. But it
is beautiful out there. The view from the airstrip lots would be similar.
The SW end of the "new" airstrip actually is adjacent to a section of the Ranchitos. If on Google Earth, the Ranchitos are the gridlines below and
generally south and east of the airstrip. They have underground water and above ground elec. and "Slimlines", so I expect we would be on Prodigy. Dont
think there is cable.
We actually began dismissing any lots near the end of the runway once we found out that it would be re-opening.......although I doubt that the amount
of air traffic will really be an issue. I grew up on more than a few military bases and love to see planes taking off and landing..........and those
were much louder. My Dad was a C-130 pilot for many years.
