At this point any info is better than none thanks David for what you bring. Just saw a post stating that the traffic is flowing or maybe trickling to Ensenada. I need to confirm that as I am still here. Again, many thanks.

Hey Mike, I made it home, and did get to fish...nothing special, freezer fishing.

Now for Tony's big adventure. My wife Becky was postinfg for me while I was stuck.

I tryed to leave Thursday last week, and got stuck south side of bridge in Vicente Guerrero. Stayed 4-5 hours thinking made they might allow a vechile at a time to cross. Every bridge I crossed from Socorro was raging, especially the one after Los Pinos...didn't think it would stay up. Anyways, gave up at V.G. and went back to Socorro. Crossing the brigde at Los Pinos had my a$#hole puckering up, especially went dude in front of me decided to slow down to a crawl for picture taking on the freaken bridge. OMG.

Tryed to leave Friday morining..no way. Hwy. 1 in Papolote just before Lazarro Card##as flooded. Gave up, and had Becky post here for any possible way out. Burned 4 days of emergency vacation.

Left Tuesday V.G bridge is no mas. Cross by driving across the river west of the bridge. Stayed In Ensenada Tuesday night, and got home last night.

No gas in S.Q south till last gas station before Socorro...only rojo. Only $300 pesos limit till Monday, Tuesday when I left they let me get $500. pesos.

Won't get into what happen after I crossed the river Tuesday...I'm an idiot.
