If you Nomads think the road to Asuncion is soft & rough, try going past the turn-off and head to Bahia Tortuga. The best part of the drive is the
last ten or so miles are paved. Plus there are about 6 dump trucks dumping base on the road six days a week.
For a town of about 2000 people, there sure seems to be a lot of attention devoted to it. They put in a 24" water main from Vizcaino complete with a
huge pumping plant.
Perhaps this could be the next fishing mecca for Gringos. I know that the bay is a resting point for American sail boats headed to Cabo, and once a
year the town hosts a yellow tail tournament.

The back road from Asuncion to Tortugas is even more fun!

I guess these two were newbies at armed robbery. A couple days ago these 2 tweekers found their way to Asuncion...in the afternoon, they held up a
store here...video rental, pharmacy, jewellery etc...at gunpoint. In our village, any car from "the outside" is noted upon entering the village so the
cops knew what getaway truck to look for. They soon found the old beater, paint scraped off, pick up stuck in the sand and out of gas on the road out
of here....guess they didn't realize how far it was....jeje...so they got caught, the goods were returned...a happy ending...BUT, now there is a huge
cafuffle where the ejido members want to do a protest to stop the highway from being finished thinking that crime will increase if the road gets
paved. So that should make lots of you Nomads happy...but gee, the crappy road didn't deter these dastardly criminals! It did make for an exciting
Saturday for sure... |

I didn't want to mention that one because there would be some people trying to drive in two wheel drive.
Nice short cut, heh?

It is the road that we were told where the armed robbers got stuck in the sand. We go out in that area quite a bit---glad we were not there that day
as we always stop and we probably would have pulled them out.
