Nice video, Richard. We took a drive out that road last week when we came to see you. Hope the road stays there this time.

Great time machine video. Was there a soundtrack that I missed? Maybe something from the new/old Man from Uncle......

That's fantastic! And good to see there is still some dirt out at the east end!

Thanks for the comments on the Sony cam, I've been wondering how GP alternatives stack up in the real off-road world.

I suppose now we have to start wearing helmets like in La Paz!

Sweetwater good pick!

There is no sound as the pos strap on the mount was flapping against the mic. While watching the vid, just practice rolling your Rs sounds just like a VW engine :)

The orange building isn't a part of the sale/rent. just the green building and lot... the lot with the orange building may be for sale and or rent but would have to check if anyone is interested..

the estuary is close to the park along the Orchard with no access to town.

Thanks, I edited my post.
Yes, from Stu's place onward is not passable.

does not look like it is passable from about the area in front of the green and orange buildings... toward town... Stu's lot must be all in the federal zone now... not a pretty sight... Leon looks like he just survived not getting washed away...
We had heard that the contract was signed to rebuild the south river road last spring but I doubt that will happen in the near future...
We will see you in a couple of weeks...

Great pics, last oct. we stopped at Questa Real RV for one night, we had been staying there twice a year since Ken was there, so I could slide in to the Jungle for a CUBA or 2. We always stayed 2 or 3 nights on the way north and the on the return home in Oct. What kind of shape is it in? Last year it was a mess. Thanks Cliff

Cuesta Real is now run by Sandra's brother, Mario. It is in good shape, except the restaurant is closed due to Oldlie last year. Pool is open and always clean. Still a good place to stay and the Jungla has the usual crowd, sadly with a couple of reserved stools now available.

A Pile on. Richard always nice to view the local area. I seems that the local people have more faith than the part time border crossers. They are making improvements in the danger zone. It is the culture. Why give up when times are difficult. A Mexican friend of my used to say '' life with out problems is not life''. Maybe that is why their culture has lasted hundreds of years and more. While the northern border crossers get angry and rude when they can not get on Facebook or send a text immediately. That lack of strengthen of history and pride plus character will be the demise of the 'great satin' as some errantly refer to U.S.-A travesty for sure.
Airstream thanks for the pictures but you stopped one lot short. Another of the place down stream of the Alamo would be appreciated..... Mtn. Poops how you doing? Still stirring the pot.

Nice new malecon going there. A big improvement over my first walk along that road from our boat to town, 50 years ago.
