I think the forcast is for clearing. I hope the town is cleaned up by next weekend. I'm still planing on coming down.
U2U me if you need anything brought down.
I think this will shut down the fishing for a while. Fish don't like muddy water. I think they don't like the taste and swim out to clean water.

We are quite concerned about our home---it is difficult to not be there! But, if there are problems, we will fix them---we keep reminding ourselves of our Baja Philosophy, it is what it is.

How long was the power out? We have some things in the freezer.

Sure hope there were no human problems in town and all of the people stuck on the road were able to get home.

Now the positive side

Maybe they will grade the road.:P

The desert should be blooming big time by the time we return. It should be a BEAUTIFUL Christmas :yes::yes:

If Jose Luis got DHL at the Internet Cafe, he should be able to set up his satelite system. :bounce::bounce::bounce

My first thought was "oh cool, I'm always having to DHL documents to La Paz and now it sounds like they have regional satellite delivery facilities".

Then I realized you probably meant "DSL" at your internet cafe. Dang.

You gotta be kidding. In Baja?:?: Be careful Diane, food that thaws and refreezes can be dangerous.

Hey Shari
Hope everything is ok there. Will be interesting driving around for awhile for sure. If the internet cafe got DSL, does that not mean that we/you could also get DSL or is it based on the lines. I will u2u about some other stuff.

Sharks is right. Never leave food in the freezer...the surprise when you return can be disgusting. If you want to leave it running fill it up with milk cartons full of water. You can leave bread and stuff like that but never fish(yucky to the max if thawed) or meats or dairy products.
Power outages can come at any time with no rhyme or reason, storms aside!

I heard the best idea for Mexico refrigerators last night, Leave a bowl of ice cubes in the freezer and when you open it to check, if the ice cubes have melted and it is now a bowl of frozen water, then you know the refrigerator was off long enough for the ice to melt and you can throw the food away (mostly fish) away and not eat it.

We got 1/2 inch here at our home just north of San Felipe.
Should be a good day to go to the desert, no dust!
Get those roads in shape Shari, we are having our meeting today on trip plans to get to you.We may be coming sooner than first planned?

We don't leave much, and what I like to do is put a few ice cubes in a bowl in the freezer so if the power was out for a while, they will melt and refreeze. Just like Pescador suggested

We don't leave much----fish, NEVER---guess next time we just need to stay longer and eat everything up. :lol::lol:

DHL? Well, I will be thrilled to DSL, but DHL would also be nice. :yes::yes: It would be nice to have any kind of delivery system out there---bus or anything.

Now, back to being concerned about the roof. Since the Vizcaino Pen is one of the driest places ----only one of three fog deserts in the world, this kind of rain hits hard.

Ah, but that desert will be in full bloom.

Tiomiguel---U2U me and I will tell you about what Jose Luis in the Internet Cafe told me he wanted to set up for the community. Can't wait to get back and see if it now possible. If it is, no more naps while using the internet! If it works, your sister may need some upgraded equip.

Shari, I got your rain right here. By the time it moved northeast to Utah it turned to snow. This is my motorcycle that I like to ride around when I'm in Baja. When I went to bed last night it was dry, when I got up to go shopping this morning it looked like this.
