How old is it... and could it date from the mission period? Was it a nautical navigation aid?

The mystery walls at Bahía las Animas are no less strange and also can be seen from the water.

Here is how I illustrated them in my new book, Baja California Land of Missions:



I've seen it from a boat....pretty impressive!

Yes indeed... I have gotten his Spot signal at L.A. Bay (4:45pm yesterday). So far today: Pancho's road (Bahia San Rafael) at 9:17 am PDT, and the fork to Mission Santa Gertrudis or Guillermo Prieto at the San Francisquito/El Arco road at 10:49 am PDT. Just now, a Spot came in that he is near Vizcaino just after 12 noon PDT.

When does Baja Sur change their clocks?

Still wondering about Baja Sur clocks...

Great run from L.A. Bay south, Tom!

I believe that Baja Sur changes with mainland Mexico on April 1st and Baja Norte changes with the US, but I could be wrong.

I hate it in Anchorage! There used to be a two hour difference between Anchorage/Fairbanks and Juneau, so they both got moved to have the same time zone.

That makes Anchorage double down on going to work in the dark this time of year! Then by the summer solstice when there is 22 hours of daylight, what are we saving?




If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

Yes, the state Baja California (Norte) is tagged to (Alta) California and Sonora is tagged to Arizona (which doesn't change their clocks).
