Politics aside he is the #1 Baja affectionado and Nomad contributor in my book. He is helping to define Bajas' past before it's too late. Good on him!

David K. was definitely bitten by the Baja-Bug from an early age as demonstrated in some of his pictures. I don’t know of a more knowledgeable person when it comes to Baja. Please make sure that your knowledge is passed on to another generation so others can enjoy as we have. Thanks for all you have done to enlighten us about "LA BAJA" The final frontier! The beautiful Peninsula that is endless, silent and waiting to caress your face or kick your behind. Where the Baja Nomad has a mission to live or seek-out and contact La Baja life through the exploration of her vastness and attempt to go where no man or woman has gone before.

With almost 20,000 posts on this wonderful Nomad board - that tells you enough about how much Baja knowledge David K has shared over the years. The detail involved in his trip reports just get better and better. Just when you think he's written the best trip report ever - the next one takes you deeper and deeper into Baja history, etc.
My hat is off to you David!

David's contribution to the dissemination of information on Baja's historical treasures has not only enhanced our experience, but will remain as fodder for future historians. Certainly he deserves some credit for the recent protection given mission sites by the Mexican government. More and more local folks recognize the value of these sites.

Now, David, about that lost Mission Isabel...

I know when I see a post form David K that I need to read it carefully because I will most likely learn something new about Baja.

To me, that says it all!

Thanks David

Mr.K invited us to play in this sandbox. He unselfishly offered to help us get some pictures on the net of our little known paradise...did lots of work without ever even have met us...and with nothing to gain but the pleasure he gets out of sharing the baja experience...infecting others with the incurable baja fever.

When we did meet, politics never came up at all and he shared lots of really interesting information on remote areas and missions. He is a gentleman and a scholar...and i dont give a rat's burro what his politics are as long as he is respectful and pleasant.

I take my sombrero off to you david....gracias for introducing us to Nomadlandia.

David is a real Ambassador to Baja California. He knows it, loves it, lives it, and shares it. He's often referred to my books, "Baja Fever" and "Baja Legends," as well as others he thinks best cover a certain subject. I'm glad that he's never been cured from "Baja Fever." Keep it up, David.
