This is just great, Me and the 2 cats are heading south back to Buena Vista on Saturday. I'm picturing being stranded on the wrong side of a washed
out road with nowhere to go, nowhere to stay and putting up with 2 cranky cats.....sounds like "Baja adventure" to me...

That is our own Baja Nomad "Fish 101" Brent Currier who has brats on board.......he's coming back to Loreto from his US summer tour......the brats in
question are from McBee's Brats in Amsterdam, Kansas......
I hope he saves us a few!  |

Then again, it may just drizzle off to the northwest and water the ocean. In meteorology, predicting a mid course hook shot of a hurricane is akin to
predicting a mid course hook shot in golf.
Gentle rain! For the entire state! Not gonna wash the car and throw sand in its face...

she'll be throwing bands at the peninsula starting Mon-Tue.

Wait there, Woody; I'll come get you and bring you back so you can have a front row seat! I've been through two category 5 hurricanes, Camille and
Gilberto, I am not fond of their little siblings either.

Interesting in an understatement SMG....Miriam is going to definitely rain on our parade and create an insane swell. I highly recommend people who
have houses here to get busy today on preparing for lots of water and laying in extra provisions just in case.
David E....if the swell does what it says it's going to on the surf sites...you may need to evacuate to higher ground...like your old digs on the 2nd
floor of Gypsies place so get a little ditch bag together!!!! A surf site says between 15-20 feet and at high tide, that will pass over the bank at
the beach in town...but I guess that new hotel built right in front of you will take the brunt of it.
Remember Nomads NOT to camp in any arroyo...many of those nice sandy beaches ARE arroyos so beware. I would alter travel plans to be somewhere secure
later this week and have extra water/food and gas.

What do you guys think will happen with the Santa Rosalia ferry? I know my australian body guards are planning to leave Bahia and try to catch that
ferry. I'm still waffling on whether I ride things out or make a run for it, spending more time in Baha on the return trip.
This thread talks about the ferry but mentions it is small and easily delayed by rough sees:

Departures are Tuesday, Wed, Friday, Sat, Sun according to their web site.
